Setting

Function

SET ACCESSIBLE
PORTS

This function allows Administrators and Users to select which
Ports can be accessed from a particular Console. Move the
highlight bar to the target computer, then press [Enter] or the
[Spacebar] to toggle access On and Off. If access is On, a
plus mark ( + ) appears to indicate so. If access is Off, the
area is blank. Make your choice, then press [Esc] to confirm.

SET MULTIUSER
MODE

This function determines whether or not the same ID can be
used to log into the CS428 from different Consoles at the
same time.

1. If Disabled, the same ID cannot be used; if Enabled (the

default), the same ID can be used to log in from more than
one Console.

2. If Enabled, the F4, F6, and F7 settings set for any one

Console, will be the same for all other Consoles that log in
with the same ID.

3. Changes made to the F4, F6, and F7 settings by any

logged in Console will automatically affect all Consoles
with the same ID.

SET ACCESS
TIMEOUT

This function is used to set the timeout value to control the
release of access rights to a computer. If the original Console
doesn't access the computer before the timeout value is
reached, the computer becomes available to the other
Consoles. To set the timeout value, key in a number from 2 -
255 seconds, then press [Enter] (if the number is 0 [zero],
this function is disabled. Default is 010 (ten) seconds.

CLEAR THE NAME
LIST

This function is used to undo all Administrator changes and
return the setup to the original factory default settings.
Note: While this function is in progress, make sure that no
other operations are performed on any of the other Consoles.

RESTORE DEFAULT
VALUES

This function is used to undo all Administrator changes and
return the setup to the original factory default settings - except
for the Names that were assigned to Ports, which are saved.

RELEASE ALL
PRIVATE

Releases all Ports that have been set to Private Mode (see
PRIVATE MODE, page 23), so that the
y become accessible
to all Consoles.

SET LOGOUT
TIMEOUT

If a Console that has accessed a computer isn't used for the
amount of time set with this function, the Operator is
automatically logged out. A login is necessary before the
Console can be used again. This enables the other Consoles
to gain access to the computers when the original Console is
no longer accessing them, but the Operator has forgotten to
relinquish access. To set the timeout value, key in a number
from 1 - 255 minutes, then press [Enter] If the number is 0
[zero], this function is disabled. Default is 5 (five) minutes.
