Keybd Layout

background color provides an indication of password suitability and is initially red to indicate
that the password is not sufficient. When a password with reasonable strength has been
entered it changes to blue.

viewer/browser windows

Hot Keys
Use the left and right arrow buttons to select an appropriate hot key sequence for the

to access the on-screen menus and to change between hosts. The options are: Ctrl+Alt
(default), Ctrl + Shift, Alt + Shift, Alt Gr, Left + Right Alt, Left Ctrl + Alt or Right Ctrl + Alt. If
the UltraLink 2 is connected to a KVM switch, make sure that the hot key combination
selected does not conflict with the KVM switch hot key assignments.

Screensaver
Use the left and right arrow keys to select the period of inactivity before a screensaver
starts and the user is logged out. This setting applies to local users only and once the
screensaver is displayed, for security purposes the user is required to log in again. The
timeout period can be selected between 5 minutes and 1 day (24 hours), it cannot be
disabled.

Time and Date
Set these correctly as all entries in the activity log are time stamped using them.

Encryption
Arrange this setting according to your security requirements. See Encryption settings for a
description of the settings.
When the needed information has been entered, click on “Next” to configure the network.

Remote Login
Use the left or right arrow key to select “Notify” or “Ignore”. Selecting “Notify” will display on
the local KVM monitor all remote users when they connect to UltraLink 2.
