show the source name in parenthesis meaning that the source can be seen but not controlled. Only one
destination will show the source name without parenthesis, and that is the one with the keyboard mouse
channel.
NOTE: If no other destination is using the source at the time the (VIEW) button is pressed,
then the new destination will also get control of the keyboard/mouse.)
"SHARE" is a hybrid of the first two commands. No existing video connections for the given source are
broken, but the new destination will also receive control of the keyboard/mouse. This is useful when two
or more user destinations are viewing the same source and they wish to take turns controlling the
keyboard and mouse. The video will be present at both destinations, but whoever presses SHARE last
will have control of the keyboard/mouse.
And as described previously in the (VIEW) section, if SHARE is used to connect a source to a
destination, the source name will appear without parenthesis in that destination and with parenthesis in
any other previous destinations also showing that source.
There are also Lock and Unlock buttons to keep control of chosen sources and destinations. When a
user has a source or destination (or both) locked, they can be assured that no other user will be able to
take video, keyboard or mouse from that source.
