Using the OSD
Security Screen
The security feature enables the user to lock the keyboard and monitor. When the
keyboard and monitor are locked, the user must enter a password before resuming
operation. The user can also set a time delay before the system is locked by entering
the number of seconds to delay the screen saver.
The user must provide a password to access the fields in the Security screen. After
the correct password is entered, the other fields on the screen are activated. If a Dual
Console 8-Port console switch is being used, each console can have a different
password.
