Scanning PCs
The scanning feature allows you to automatically moni-
tor, or scan, each PC in your SwitchView system. If you
use the keyboard during scanning, the scan will pause
until you finish, then resume with the next PC. The
length of time each PC's video remains on the screen, or
dwell time, can be changed at any time. Scanning will
be halted if the Halt command is entered or if another
PC is selected.
