6.3.4 Users

The Users option can only be accessed when Security is enabled in the General Settings page.
(See General under On-Screen Display OSD F2 Settings section for details.) Highlight the Users
option and press the [Enter] key to open the User Settings page. In the column on the left side
of the screen, all of the ports on the KVM are listed. On the right side of the screen, there are
6 columns; one for each user account. For example, column 1 represents the first user account
that is displayed in the Security Settings page. (See the Security Settings section for details.) The
letters in each column represent the access rights that the corresponding user account has for
the corresponding port. There are three types of access a user can be given to a port, which are
described below.
• Y – A Y signifies that the corresponding user account has full access rights to the corresponding
port.
• V – A V signifies that the corresponding user account has view-only access rights to the
corresponding port, meaning that they can view the remote video, but are not allowed to control
the connected computer with the keyboard and mouse.
• N – A N signifies that the corresponding user account is not allowed to access the corresponding
port.
To change the User settings, the administrator must follow the steps below.
1. In the User Settings page, use the [↓] and [↑] keys to move the cursor to the desired port row.
2. Use the [←] and [→] keys to move the cursor to the desired account column.
3. Press the [Spacebar] key to toggle between the different access types.

option and press the [Enter] key to open the Security Settings page. The Security Settings page
displays all of the available accounts for the KVM; 1 administrator, 1 supervisor and 6 users. The
first column lists the account Name, the second column lists the account Password, and the third
column lists the account Type. The three available account types are described below.
• Administrator – There is one administrator account available. The administrator has full access
to all ports and settings on the KVM. The administrator is the only account that can access the
F2 SETTINGS menu in the OSD.
• Supervisor – There is one supervisor account available. The supervisor has full access to all
ports on the installation, but is not allowed to access the F2 SETTINGS menu in the OSD. The
supervisor is allowed to access the F1 HELP , F4 SCAN, F5 TUNING, F6 MOVE LABEL and F10
NEW MONITOR DDC functions in the OSD.
• User – There are six user accounts available. Users' port access rights are limited to those
assigned to them by the administrator. Users are not allowed to access the F2 SETTINGS menu

MONITOR DDC functions.
To change the Security settings, the administrator must follow the steps below.

row.
2. To edit the account Name, simply type the desired name over the current one, and delete any
unnecessary characters. Note: The account Name is for organizational purposes only. The
