CHAPTER 4: Full Configuration
Here are the profile-configuration parameters:
Name
Use this field to assign a name up to 8 characters long to each user profile. This
can be, for example, a descriptive term such as “Staff” or the name of a person or
an area of business. Factory-default names are “Profil 1” through “Profil16.”
Access
Use this field to assign each user profile to a group. Users whose profile is in a
certain group can access only those computers that also belong to that group.
The factory-default group for each profile is the group appearing in the same-
numbered row in the “Configure Group” page (see
Section 4.7
); that is, the first
profile is assigned the group in the first row in the “Configure Group” page
(“Profil 1” initially), the second profile is assigned the group in the second row in
the “Configure Group” page (“Profil 2” initially), and so on. If you go into the
“Configure Group” page and change the name of any group assigned to a
profile—whether it’s one of the defaults that’s still in effect, or a different group
you’ve manually assigned that’s listed in some other row—the group name
appearing in this Access field will be automatically updated, but
only after
you save
the configuration and exit and re-enter the configuration menu.
Connect
Use this field to select the “connection mode” in which users with a given user
profile will communicate with selected CPUs (see
Section 5.4
for more
information):
•
View
- If a profile is set to this mode, users with that profile can’t take keyboard
or mouse control of any computers. (They can still see computers’ video.)
•
Share
- The factory-default setting. If a profile is set to this mode, users with
that profile can take keyboard and mouse control of computers on a first-
come, first-served basis. Computer availability is based on the Share-mode
timeout (see the
Share
heading on the next page).
•
Control
- If a profile is set to this mode, users with that profile can take
exclusive
keyboard and mouse control of computers. While someone is accessing a
computer in this mode, users at other stations can’t take control of that
computer, but they can still view its video.
•
Private
- If a profile is set to this mode, users with that profile can take
exclusive
keyboard and mouse control, and have
exclusive
view, of a computer. While
someone is accessing a computer in this mode, users at other stations have no
keyboard, mouse, or video access to that computer at all.
