User logout
Use the
Logout
function to log out from the KVM switch. The
Login
box is displayed
after the logout.
How to log out from the KVM switch:
1. Press
Ctrl+Num
(standard) to open the On-Screen Display.
2. Press
F1
to open the
Function
menu.
3. Use the
Arrow keys
to select
Logout
and press
Enter
.
Disabling OpenAccess
In the default configuration, you can access the KVM switch without restrictions.
Access to the KVM switch is
not
protected with a login box.
Depending on the use of the KVM switch, it might be useful to restrict access by cre-
ating user accounts.
Enabling a user account and disabling the
OpenAccess
account (see below) disables
the open access.
Creating or changing user accounts
In the default configuration, the eight user accounts are named
USER 1
to
USER 8
.
The accounts are disabled.
If you want to configure a user account, you can enable the account and assign it with
username and password.
The following paragraphs describe the required procedure.
NOTE:
The
OpenAccess
is enabled in the default configuration of the KVM switch.
The
OpenAccess
user only needs to log out if another user, for example the
Supervisor
,
wants to log in.
IMPORTANT:
Only the
Supervisor
or users with the required rights (see page 24) can
create or change user accounts.
ADVICE:
You can use the
User Account
menu to change the settings. After you finish,
press
F1
to save your changes.
