Security: Access time
This feature is used to automatically log out of the switch after a period of time. The period of time is
programmable with the access time field. To change the time, highlight the access time field and
press enter to clear the field. Input a new value followed by the enter key. The value can be from 1
to 999 minutes. The access time starts when there is no keyboard or mouse activity. When the
access time-out lapses, you will be disconnected and be required to enter the access password from
the login box to gain access to the computers.
Locking the keyboard
You can disconnect from the current computer by entering the control L command. This disconnects
from the current computer. If no access password has been set, then the screen saver will come on
immediately. If there is an access password, a login box will appear and you will be required to enter
the access password to gain access to the previously connected computer.
Configure computer mouse
You can assign which type of mouse is used on each computer. To change the mouse type, use the
up and down arrow keys to highlight the computer you want to change. Use the space bar to cycle
through a list of the mouse types. Stop when you get to the desired mouse type. You have a choice
of PS/2, PS2 wheel, or serial 2 button.
