Function
This function is used to set passwords for the Administrator and User:
One Administrator and four User passwords can be set. Move the
highlight bar to User or Administrator, then press [Enter]. A screen that
allows you to key in your password appears. The password maybe up to
8 characters long and can consist of any combination of letters and
numbers (A - Z, 0 - 9). You are asked to key the password in twice to
make sure there is no typing mistake.
To modify or delete a previous password, use the backspace key. If the
Administrator wants to change a user's password, he must enter their
administrator's password first.
This function allows Administrators and Users to select, which Ports can
be accessed, from a particular Console.
If access is ON, a plus mark ( + ) has to be selected, space ( ) means
that access is not possible. Selection is made by ENTER or SPACEBAR.
A Multi-User Switch provides access to the selected ports to other users
after the selectable delay TIMEOUT. TIMEOUT is adjustable from 2-255
seconds. The time count starts after the last keyboard or mouse
operation. Selecting "0" means that the port will be permanently blocked
for all other users.
This function is used to undo all Administrator changes and return to
the original factory default settings.
Note: While this function is in progress, make sure that no other
operations are performed on any of the other Consoles.
This function is used to undo all Administrator changes and return to
the original factory default settings - except for the Names that were
assigned to Ports
Releases all Ports that have been set to Private Mode (see Private
Mode), so that they become accessible to all Consoles.
If a Console that has accessed by a computer is not used for the amount
of time set with this function, the Operator is automatically logged out. A
log in is necessary before the Console can be used again. This enables
the other Consoles to gain access to the computers when the original
Console is no longer accessing them, but the Operator has forgotten to
relinquish access. To set the timeout value, key in a number from 1-255
minutes. If the number is 0 [zero], this function is disabled. Default is 5
(five) minutes.
This function determines whether the same ID can be used to log into
the CPU Switch MultiMedia from different Consoles at the same time.
1. If Disabled, the same ID cannot be used; if Enabled (the default),
the same ID can be used to log in from more than one Console.
2. If Enabled, the F4, F6, and F7 settings set for any one Console,
will be the same for all other Consoles that log in with the same ID.
3. Changes made to the F4, F6, and F7 settings by any logged in
Console will automatically affect all Consoles with the same ID.
