11. KVM Web Interface

11.7 User Preferences

The User Preferences page allows users to set up their own individual working environments. The KVM Switch stores a separate record for each
user profile, and sets up the working environment according to the Username that was used to access the KVM switch.
Setting Description
Language Selects the interface language. Options include English (default), Spanish, French, German, Russian, Italian,
Japanese, Korean, traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese.
OSD Hotkey Selects which hotkey controls the OSD function. You can choose from the following options; [Scroll Lock] [Scroll
Lock], [Ctrl] [Ctrl], [Alt] [Alt], [Shift] [Shift] and [Print Screen] [Print Screen]. The default is [Scroll Lock] [Scroll Lock].
ID Display Selects how the Port ID is displayed: the Port Number alone (PORT NUMBER); the Port Name alone (PORT NAME);
or the Port Number plus the Port Name (PORT NUMBER + PORT NAME). The default is PORT NUMBER + PORT
NAME.
ID Duration Determines how long a Port ID displays on the monitor after a port change has taken place. Choose a duration from
1—255 seconds. The default is 3 seconds. A setting of 0 (zero) means the Port ID is always on.
Scan Duration Determines how long the focus dwells on each port as it cycles through the selected ports in Auto Scan Mode.
Choose a value from 1—255 seconds. The default is 5 seconds; a setting of 0 disables the Scan function.
Screen Blanker If there is no input from the console for the amount of time set with this function, the screen is blanked. Choose
a value from 1—30 minutes. A setting of 0 disables this function. The default is 0 (disabled). When the screen is
blank, simply moving the mouse over the screen will make it appear once again.
Note: This setting affects the local console monitor only.
Logout Timeout If there is no user input for the amount of time set with this function, the user is automatically logged out. A login is
required before the KVM Switch can be accessed again. The default is 30 minutes.
Toolbar The Toolbar option enables/disables the OSD Toolbar. As all of the features of the OSD Toolbar are available in the
Control Panel, consider disabling it; the default setting is enabled.
Viewer The Viewer option allows you to choose what viewer is used to access a port.
• Auto Detect – The KVM switch will automatically choose which viewer to use based on the web browser. The
Windows Viewer will be used for Internet Explorer and the Java Viewer will be used for all other browsers.
• Java Client – The KVM switch will always use the Java Viewer, regardless of what browser is being used.
Welcome Message The Welcome Message option allows you to show or hide the welcome message that appears in the upper-right
corner of the screen. It is disabled by default.
Save To apply any changes, you must click Save before exiting.
Changing a Password To change a password, the user must enter the old password and the new password. The new password will need to
be entered twice for security purposes. Once entered, click Save to apply the change.
