Attribute Definition
Exclusive The first user to switch to the port has exclusive control over
the port. No other users can view the port. The Timeout
function does not apply to ports that have this setting.
Occupy The first user to switch to the port has control over the port;
however, up to 32 users may view the video from the port. If
the user who controls the port is inactive for longer than the
time set in the Timeout box, port control is transferred to the
next user to move the mouse or strike the keyboard.
Share Up to 32 users simultaneously share control over the port.
Input from the users is placed in a queue and executed
chronologically. When accessing ports that are set to Share,
we recommend that users take advantage of the Message
Board feature, which allows a user to take control of the
keyboard and mouse (or the keyboard, mouse, and video) of a
Share port (see The Message Board, page 79, for details).
