ule, the target module name is displayed in green.

If the target module is disconnected from the KVM matrix system or the computer

connected to the target module is switched off, the name is displayed in red.

Displaying the status condition

The status condition of the target modules is displayed in the left column of the Select

menu:

An arrow () marks the currently accessed target module.

If one or more users are currently accessing the target module, the number of

accessing users is displayed in the column.
