CHAPTER 4: BASIC OPERATIONS

Target
The Target tab lists the servers that may be accessed from your Octet user station and the
available modes for these servers. Servers may be selected in Shared, Private, Scan or
Maintain modes. If you have not logged in successfully to the Octet switching system, the
servers connected to the matrix will not display in the server list. You can access the
servers by double-clicking on
Matrix System in the list and then logging in.
Shared
If two or more users need to access the same server, they can share access to it through the
Octet switch. Sharing means that multiple consoles can view a server channel at the same
time, but only one can enter data through the keyboard or mouse at any given moment.
When the active console stops all keyboard and mouse activity, another console can take
control of the server.
Private
When you select your server after clicking the Private radio button, no other user station
in the system can switch to your selected server. If another user initiates a channel change
to your private channel, access will be denied. You may take your channel out of Private
mode by switching to another server or reselecting the same server in Shared mode.
Scan
In Scan mode multiple servers may be monitored in sequence. When keyboard or mouse
activity is detected, scanning stops, allowing users to operate an attached device. For more
information on scanning, see
Selecting Servers later in this chapter.
Maintain
Use Maintain mode when you wish to remain connected to a server while rebooting or
maintaining the server. Once selected in Maintain mode, the server will not lose contact
with the switch when power to the server is cycled.
NOTE:
Servers in Maintain mode cannot be shared.
User
The User tab enables you to control your system at the local port. The User tab screens
enable you to change your password and the scan dwell time. Other operations enabled
through the User tab include setting the target flag layout and selecting hotkey functions.
NOTE:
Using an LDAP password disables the option to change the password.
Other operations enabled through the User tab include setting the target flag
layout, selecting server hotkey functions and configuring the audio and serial
features.
