Configuration Menus - ADDER CATx User Manual

Configuration menus

The configuration menus allow you to determine many aspects of the
AdderView CATx capabilities. From here you can:
• Create individual user accounts and determine access rights,
• Provide names for all connected computers to allow quick recognition,
• Set individual and global settings for users,
• Run various functions, such as mouse restore operation,
• Save and load AdderView CATx configuration settings, and more.
