Messages on the FOLLOWER User Stations
When the Multiple Video command is issued, a message similar to the
following will be displayed on the FOLLOWER user stations. Any keyboard
output on these user stations is invalid while in the Multiple Video mode.
Using P2-USTIP for Multiple Video Outputs
P2-USTIP has two operation modes: remote and local modes. Only local
mode supports the Multiple Video function.
In the remote mode (no OSUI displayed):
P2-USTIP CANNOT function as either the ACTIVATOR or FOLLOWER
user station in this mode. If a remote user accesses an ACTIVATOR
channel via P2-USTIP, the Multiple Video function is NOT triggered at all.
In the local mode (OSUI displayed):
This is the only mode in which Multiple Video functions. Enter the local
mode by pressing
Ctrl+Alt+Delete . Then P2-USTIP can act as either the
ACTIVATOR or FOLLOWER user station.
Authentication with a Smart Card
With the use of the P2-EUST/C user station and the P2CIM-AUSB-C CIM,
Paragon II enables you to control access to servers that require user
authentication with an appropriate smart card. Therefore, data security is
further enhanced by only permitting users who pass appropriate login
credentials to a target server to view and manage the server's data. Note
that the integrated card reader of the P2-EUST/C is used when accessing
target servers, but not when accessing Paragon II. The method of
accessing Paragon II is unchanged.
