Mode Selection

The Operating Mode Pushbutton, located on the CE770L’s front panel,

controls the operating mode of the CE770 USB KVM Extender system.

Pressing the switch toggles through Local and Auto operating modes.

When you press the Auto/Local pushbutton and select Local, the Local LED

lights solid green and the computer can only be accessed at the local console.

In Local mode, the remote console cannot access the computer.

When you press the Auto/Local pushbutton and select Auto, the Remote and

Local LEDs flash on and off alternately until the computer is accessed by the

local or remote console. In Auto mode, both the local and remote console can

access the computer on a one-at-a-time basis.

Note: Remote mode cannot be selected. The remote console can gain control

only when the Operating Mode Pushbutton is toggled to Auto and the

local console is idle. If the remote console is then idle for more than five

seconds, the local console can gain access.
