F8: LOUT
Clicking the F8 field, or pressing [F8] logs you out of OSD control of the computers and blanks the console
screen. This is different from simply pressing [Esc] when you are at the main screen to deactivate the OSD.
With this function you must log in all over again to regain access to the OSD, whereas with [Esc], all you
have to do to reenter the OSD is tap the OSD hotkey.
Note:
1. When you re-enter the OSD after logging out, the screen stays blank except for the OSD main screen.
You must input your username and password before you can continue.
2. If you re-enter the OSD after logging out, and immediately use [Esc] to deactivate the OSD without
having selected a port from the OSD menu, a null port message displays on the screen. The OSD
hotkey will bring up the main OSD screen.
