5.3 The “Configure Computers” Page

Use this page to set the name, keyboard type, and mouse type for each of the
ServSwitch’s CPU ports. Access it from the main menu by hitting [Enter] when
“Configure computers” is highlighted. The page is shown below in Figure 5-5. (The
arrow in the column after the computer number points to the currently selected
computer.)

Figure 5-5. The “Configure computers” page.

Use the left- and right-arrow keys to move the highlight bar to the column you
want to change: the computer name, keyboard type, or mouse type. Use the upand
down-arrow keys to move the highlight bar to the row (that is, to the individual
CPU port) whose setting(s) you want to change. Use the page-up and page-down
keys to access computers 17 through 256.
