Example 4: Configuring the Lockout Timer

In this example, you adjust the lockout timer to sixty-five seconds, as shown in Figure 12.

To configure the Panel in this manner:

x

connect the Panel to your computer and run the Configuration Utility;

x

wait for current Panel settings to be retrieved;

x select

the

Timers tab;

x

click in the Lockout Timer value box, and type 65;

x

download the new settings by clicking Download Settings.

The Panel will now prevent users from turning the projector on within sixty-five seconds of turning
it off. Trying to turn the Panel on during this time will queue the power-on command, but not send
it until the timer expires.

The Inactivity Shutdown Timer

The Inactivity Shutdown Timer lets the Panel shut itself and the projector off automatically, if a
specified time passes during which no Panel button is pressed. This is useful in situations in
which the projector might be accidentally left on.
