F4 ADM
F4 is an Administrator only function. It allows the Administrator to configure
and control the overall operation of the OSD. To change a setting use the Up
and Down Arrow Keys to move the highlight bar to it then press [Enter].
After you select an item, a submenu with further choices appears. Move the
Highlight Bar to the choice you want, then press [Enter]. An icon appears
before the selected choice so that you know which one it is. The settings are
explained in the following table:

Setting Function
EDIT PORT
NAMES To help remember which computer is attached to a particular port,
every port can be given a name. This function allows the Administrator
to create, modify, or delete port names. To Edit a port name:
1. Click the port you want, or use the Navigation Keys to move the
highlight bar to it, then press [Enter].
2. Key in the new Port Name, or modify/delete the old one. The maxi-
mum number of characters allowed for the Port Name is 12. Legal
characters include:
Š
All alpha characters: A–Z*
Š
All numeric characters: 0–9
Š
- and Space
*Case does not matter; the OSD displays the Port Name in all
capitals no matter how they were keyed in.
3. When you have finished editing, press [Enter] to have the change
take effect. To abort the change, press Esc.
RESTORE
DEFAULT
VALUES This function is used to undo all changes and return the setup to the
original factory default settings (see OSD Factory Default Settings,
page 152)
– except for the Names settings that were assigned to the
Ports, which are saved.
CLEAR THE
NAME LIST This function is similar to Restore Default Values. The difference is that
it also clears the Names settings along with undoing all changes and
returning the setup to the original factory default settings.
RESET
STATION IDS If you change the position of one of the Stations in the daisy chain, the
OSD settings will no longer correspond to the new situation. This
function directs the OSD to rescan the Station positions of the entire
installation and updates the OSD so that the OSD Station information
corresponds to the new physical layout.
Note: Only the Station Numbers get updated. Except for the Port
Names, all Administrator settings (such as Set Accessible Ports, Set
Quick View Ports, etc.), for all of the computers affected by the change,
have to be manually redone.
