•
Below the communication status icon, a timer shows how long the session can be idle until you are
automatically signed out. This timer resets after each action you perform. One minute before automatic
sign-out you are prompted to continue using SMU. The timer does not appear if the current user's Auto
Sign Out preference is set to Never.
If a SMU session is active on a controller and the controller is power cycled or is forced offline by the
•
partner controller or certain other events occur, the session might hang. SMU might say that it is
"Connecting" but stop responding, or the page may become blank with the browser status "Done."
After the controller comes back online, the session will not restart. To continue using SMU, close and
reopen the browser and start a new SMU session.
