another user selects this port. The OSD will display a message ‘Port is in private mode’.

If a port or server is already being used and operated by another user the server screen will
appear and the OSD displays the message ‘Port is in use’. Input to this server or port is possible
until the first user is disconnected (see F5 ADM / Set Access Timeout). Also if cascaded no input
to this port is possible AND the screen stays dark.
