Setup Options
Setup.options.are.available.only.to.the.
Admin.user.and.consist.of.key.settings.that.
are.normally.made.only.during.the.initial.
installation.stage. Hotkeys
Settings: CRTL+ALT, CTRL+SHIFT, ALT+SHIFT, ALT GR, L+R ALT, L CTRL+ALT,
R CTRL+ALT, DISABLED
The.keyboard.hotkeys.are.special.combinations.of.keys.that,.when.used.
together.with.certain.keyboard.“command.keys”,.perform.special.AdderView.
CATx.functions..For.example,.pressing.the.hotkeys.together.with.the.“M”.key.
will.cause.the.on-screen.menu.to.be.displayed.on.your.monitor..Other.hotkey.
combinations.allow.you.to.query.which.computer.you.are.connected.to.and.
to.move.the.on-screen.menu.around.the.screen..You.can.also.use.the.hotkeys.
together.with.the.port.number.to.select.a.particular.connected.computer.
Keypad Controls
Settings: ENABLED, DISABLED
The.key.controls.on.the.front.of.the.AdderView.CATx.may.be.disabled.so.that.it.
is.only.possible.to.select.the.special.channels.“o”.(on-screen.menu).and.“0”.(no.
computer.channels.selected).
Exclusive Use
Settings: ALLOWED, DISABLED
In.normal.operation,.the.AdderView.CATx.will.allow.two.or.more.users.to.
share.access.to.a.computer..In.this.mode,.the.computer’s.video.picture.will.be.
displayed.on.all.the.users’.monitors.but.only.one.user.may.have.active.control.
of.the.computer’s.keyboard.and.mouse.at.any.one.time..The.AdderView.CATx.
detects.an.active.user.by.checking.for.keyboard.and.mouse.data..
A.user.becomes.inactive.if.no.keyboard.or.mouse.data.has.been.received.by.
the.AdderView.CATx.for.a.specified.timeout.period..Whilst.one.user.is.active.
all.the.other.users.that.are.connected.to.the.same.computer.will.see.a.“video.
only”.message.displayed.on.their.screen..There.may.be.situations.where.
particular.users.wish.to.control.and.view.a.computer.in.private.with.exclusive.
use..The.AdderView.CATx.has.the.facility.to.allow.users.to.select.exclusive.use.of.
computers,.however,.this.facility.should.be.used.with.care...
Users.that.have.selected.exclusive.access.are.never.timed.out.by.the.AdderView.
CATx.and.so.all.other.users.are.effectively.“locked.out”.until.the.exclusive.user.
switches.to.another.computer.or.logs.out..This.could.potentially.be.very.irritating.
if.a.user.has.selected.exclusive.use.and.has.then.left.their.desk.without.logging.
out..This.would.prevent.other.users.from.working.on.the.computer.until.they.
came.back..Consequently.the.system.administrator.can.disable.all.exclusive.use.
so.that.all.connections.are.shared.
