disable all exclusive use so that all connections are shared.
3.6.6 AUTOMATIC LOGOUT
Accessed from menu: SETUP OPTIONS
Settings: DISABLED, ENABLED
The LINDY CPU Switch enables you to restrict access to your computers on a login
basis. If a user forgets to logout when they have finished accessing the LINDY CPU
Switch then the user console may unintentionally be left with full access to all the
computers. The LINDY CPU Switch may be set to automatically logout unattended
user consoles when the screen saver kicks in. This reduces the risk of security
problems by preventing user consoles remaining in a permanent “logged-in” state
when there is no keyboard or mouse activity. The automatic logout feature is only
enabled when the screen saver feature is active (i.e. not disabled).
3.6.7 KEYBOARD COUNTRY and DEFAULT COUNTRY
Accessed from menu: SETUP OPTIONS
Settings: AUTOMATIC, MANUAL, DISABLED
Some computers query the keyboard to find out its country code and key layout.
These computers use this information to configure the way that they interpret the
keyboard data coming from the keyboard and so it is important for the correct country
information to be supplied. Not all keyboards report country information and two
different styles of keyboard may be connected to the LINDY CPU Switch.
Consequently in AUTOMATIC mode the LINDY CPU Switch will attempt to query
both the keyboards that are attached to try and find a country code (user port 1 is
tested first). If a country code is not found then the LINDY CPU Switch will use the
DEFAULT COUNTRY code specified by the user. In MANUAL mode, the connected
keyboards are not queried for country information and instead the DEFAULT
COUNTRY value is reported to all computers that request country information. In
DISABLED mode no country information is supplied to computers requesting country
information.
