5 The Remote OSD for the chosen ALIF receiver will be displayed. Remote OSDs always
have a yellow background to differentiate them from the standard local OSD:
Using the Remote OsD feature
The Remote OSD feature allows authorized users to access and take control of
AdderLink Infinity receivers other than the one to which they are connected. Once
linked in, users can then determine which channels the remote receivers should link with.
Remote OSD requires the following:
• The A.I.M. server(s) and all ALIF units must have firmware version 3.0 or greater.
• A user must have been given specific authorization to access one or more remote
receivers.
To access the Remote OsD
1 On the keyboard connected to your AdderLink Infinity receiver, press the hotkey
combination
ctrl-Alt-c
to display the
Local OSD
login screen.
2 If required, enter your Username and Password and click the Login button.
3 In the top right corner, click the
icon.
4 The screen will list all of the receivers to which you have access rights. Click on the
required receiver from the list:
6 The behavior of the controls is generally the same as for the
Local OSD
screen with
the following exceptions:
• To avoid confusion, you cannot login or logout while in Remote OSD mode. Click
the
icon to first return to the
Local OSD
.
• Hotkeys will only affect the current receiver to which you are connected, not the
remotely-controlled receiver.
7 To exit from the Remote OSD, click the icon in the top right corner.
