3. Basic Operations
The Sequoia 4K60L always operates in one of two mouse operating modes: Host and Remote mode. Users are able to freely switch between these two modes anytime during operation for different uses. This chapter discusses these operating modes, their functions, and hotkeys in detail.
Host Mode
When the Sequoia 4K60L is in Host mode, the Host cursor appears on the display upon connecting a
mouse device to USB Type-A port marked by this connected mouse.
on the Sequoia 4K60L. The cursor will be controlled
Host mode provides a monitoring solution for computer/video input signals. Users can use the Host cursor to select and adjust window size, position, and multiview layout directly on the on-screen interface.
Move the mouse cursor to a specific window and double-left-click to enter the Remote mode.
To switch back to Host mode, use the keyboard hotkey “Pause/Break”, or double-click the mouse scroll wheel.
Other features such as the pop-up selection menu and hotkeys are features of this mode to enhance ease of control and operation, and are discussed in detail in section (3.1) “Host Mode”.
In Host mode, double-click the mouse scroll button to cycle switch between the default layouts.
To close a specific window, move the Host cursor onto the window and double-click the mouse right button to close it.
To add a window, move the Host cursor to the blank area, left-click and drag the mouse to draw a rectangle, then release the mouse left button, and the newly added window will appear on the screen.
To lock or unlock window size and position, move the Host cursor to the top left corner of the display
until the cursor becomes , then click to lock the window layout. Repeat these steps to unlock the layout.
1. The Host mode operation is available when: The Sequoia 4K60L is in Quad Multiview + Bypass (Daisy Chain Capable) mode.
The Sequoia 4K60L is in Single-View Seamless Switching mode.
2. Upon re-connecting a keyboard or mouse, the Host cursor may disappear. Move the mouse to have it re-appear.
Please keep in mind, when adding a window, the newly added window cannot overlay the other three windows.
Remote Mode
The Remote mode is only applicable for computer sources with USB A/B cables connection to Sequoia 4K60L for mouse/keyboard operation.
By default, when the Sequoia 4K60L enters Remote mode, the Host cursor disappears, and the “Surfer” feature is enabled. The window’s border will turn yellow; this signifies that your Sequoia 4K60L is now in Remote mode with the “Surfer” function. The “Surfer” function allows keyboard and mouse switching by moving the mouse cursor between
the windows. Remote mode provides direct keyboard and mouse control to the selected computer system within
its window. The Sequoia 4K60L can only enter Remote to take control of a computer with the correct USB
