Chapter 3: Basic Operations

Operating the AutoView 424

Your AutoView 424 may be operated in a non-secure (no password required)

or secure (password required) mode. All units ship defaulted to the non-secure

mode. For information on implementing password security, see Setting User

Station Security in this chapter.

Computers may be powered up one at a time or all at once. No operator

intervention is required during booting. A computer may now be selected via

the On-Screen Display menu or, if you are in non-secure mode, keyboard

hotkey sequence.

There is one power status LED. This green LED will be illuminated when

power has been applied to the unit.
