4.13 Using the FUNCTIONS menu

The FUNCTIONS menu provides you with a number of useful functions that will help
you to make the most of your SmartView. You can access the FUNCTIONS menu
from the main on-screen menu by pressing F1 and selecting FUNCTIONS.

Standard users will be offered just two functions:

RESTORE STANDARD MOUSE and
RESTORE INTELLIMOUSE

If you have disconnected a mouse cable or you have switched the SmartView off
then the mouse connection will normally be lost. To reconstitute the mouse
connection use the mouse reset functions. See section 2.9 for a full explanation of
how these functions work.

The ADMIN user is also given the option to RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS. This
will clear all the computer and user names and set all parameters back to the factory
defaults. To avoid activating this function by accident the administrator must confirm
the reset instruction by pressing F8.

4.14 Using the dual access ports (1 and 3)

The SmartView 2XPro is fitted with one dual access port and the SmartView 4XPro
is fitted with two dual access ports. These dual access ports have connectors that
enable a local KVM (Keyboard, Video monitor and Mouse) to be attached and a
connector that enables a remote AdderLink or AdderLink Gold to be attached. Either
the local KVM, connected directly to the SmartView, or the remote KVM, connected
to the AdderLink extender, may be used to access the SmartView. The video picture
is duplicated on both the local and remote access points but the SmartView will
accept keyboard and mouse data from only one KVM at a time. Whilst one of the
KVMs is active, the num, caps and scroll lock keys on the inactive KVM's keyboard
will flash indicating that the KVM does not have control. Once there has been no
keyboard or mouse data from the active KVM for the timeout period (see section
3.6.11 for instructions on how to set the timeout period), the other KVM is allowed
access. Once keyboard or mouse data activity is detected from this new KVM it
gains control and the other KVM is disabled.
