Timeout
The Timeout setting applies to ports with the Occupy I/O attribute. It controls
the amount of time (0-255 seconds) that elapses before an inactive user is timed
out when other users are waiting to take control of the port. Once the first user
becomes inactive (i.e. stops sending keyboard and mouse input), it begins to
countdown the amount of time specified in the Timeout field. If the user does
not send input before the time expires, that user is timed out and the port is
released. The next user to send mouse or keyboard input gains control of the
port.
To apply Timeout settings:
1. Click Attributes... on the Customization dialog box. The Setting I/O
Attributes dialog box appears (see I/O Modules, page 81).
2. In the Timeout field, enter the Timeout time in seconds.
3. Click Apply. (To exit without saving your changes, click Cancel.)
Note: The Timeout setting applies to all ports on the KH1508i / KH1516i.
Miscellaneous
The functions performed by the remaining elements at the bottom of the screen
are described in the table, below:
Parameter Explanation
Reset on Exit Place a check here to have the KH1508i / KH1516i reset itself and
implement all the new settings when you log out. Following the
reset, wait approximately 30 to 60 seconds before logging back in.
Note: For some changes the Reset on exit check box is
automatically selected and the KVM switch will reset when you log
out. Clearing the check mark before logging out will cause the new
settings to be discarded.
Reset Values Clicking this button undoes all changes that have been made to the
Configuration and Administration pages (except for the Port Names
that were assigned to the Ports) and returns the parameters to the
original factory default settings (see OSD Factory Default Settings,
page 152).
Clear Name List This function clears the Port Name settings.
