Method 3: Exiting by Idle Timeout
Leaving your system idle will eventually close the session based on the
configured idle time. When this happens, the system closes the session and
sends the following message:
The idle time is set by the KVM administrator.
OSD Screen Saver
The OSD Screen Saver consists of a black screen that activates after a period
of inactivity. You can configure the time or period of inactivity before the
screen saver activates from the OSD.
Designed to prevent the monitor screen from being “burned,” the screen saver
is displayable on the workstation of the local user or remote (RP) user.
Operating through the Remote Unit (RP)
You may configure and operate your KVM remotely from your station
connected to the AlterPath KVM RP. To switch your Keyboard, Video and
Mouse (KVM) console from your local PC to the remote server connected to
the KVM switch, you may do any of the following:
• Toggle the switch button located in front of your KVM RP unit.
• Press ScrLK twice then L , to switch to the local PC.
• Press ScrLK twice then R , to switch to the remote server connected
to the KVM.
