CS1642A / CS1644A User Manual

Hotkey Setting Mode

Hotkey Setting Mode is used to set up your CS1642A / CS1644A switch

configuration. All operations begin with invoking Hotkey Setting Mode

(HSM).

Invoking HSM

To invoke HSM do the following:

1. Press and hold down [Num Lock].

2. Press and release [-].

3. Release [Num Lock].

Note: There is an alternate key combination to invoke HSM. See below for

details.

When HSM is active, the Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs flash in succession

to indicate that HSM is in effect. They stop flashing and revert to normal status

when you exit HSM.

Ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended – only Hotkey

compliant keystrokes and mouse clicks (described in the sections that follow),

can be input.

At the conclusion of some hotkey operations, you automatically exit hotkey

mode. With some operations, you must exit manually. To exit HSM manually,

press the Esc key, or the Spacebar.
