below for details.
CLEAR THE
NAME LIST*

before the procedure goes on. Key in Y, then press [Enter] to confirm.
While the names are being cleared, a message appears on the
display to indicate so. Afterwards another message appears to
indicate that the procedure completed successfully

defaults. You are asked to confirm before the procedure goes on. Key
in Y, then press [Enter] to confirm. While the settings are being

LOCK
CONSOLE*
Locks / Unlocks the Console. When the Console is locked, only the
current monitor screen displays. Attempts to input information from
the console have no effect; attempts to switch to a different port,
either from the Console or by pressing the manual switches, have no
effect either. The only way to regain access to the computers is by
Unlocking the Console. If a password has been set, you must provide
the password in order to Lock / Unlock the Console. If no password
has been set, pressing [Enter] will Lock / Unlock the Console.
* If a password has been set, these settings require you to supply a proper password in
order to access them. See the OSD Security section, below, for details.
