CHAPTER 6: Administrator Functions

•Display All Computers: You can set this option to “Yes” or “No” to respectively allow or disallow users from viewing channel listings for all connected devices through the OSUI, even if the user doesn’t have the security privileges to access them. The factory-default setting is “No.”

•Logoff Time Out: If enabled, the amount of time in minutes that a user station can remain inactive (no keyboard or mouse activity) before the logged- in user at that station is logged out of the Summit system.

–Possible values in the first field are “On” (logoff timeout is enabled) and “Off” (logoff timeout is disabled, the default value). Use the up- and down- arrow keys to toggle between these values.

–If the logoff timeout is set to “On,” the number in the second field is how many minutes of inactivity must elapse before the timeout is triggered and the user is logged out. Using leading zeroes if necessary, type in a two-digit number of minutes from 01 to 99, or use the up- and down-arrow keys to increment and decrement the current value by 1 respectively. The default setting is 05. If the logoff timeout is set to “Off,” the number in this field will have no effect.

•Operation Mode: Any of the three ways in which the Summit system handles requests from multiple users for access to the same channel (use the up- and down-arrow keys to switch between them):

–Private: A computer or other device on a specific channel can be accessed exclusively by only one user at a time. No other users can see or control that device until its controlling user selects a different channel.

–Public View: While one user is accessing a computer or other device on a specific channel, other users can select that channel and view the video output from that device, but only the first user will have keyboard and mouse control until they select another channel. When the first user selects another channel, the first other user to type at their keyboard or move their mouse will be given keyboard and mouse control. Status messages showing users’ identities appear on video-sharing users’ monitors when Public View mode is in effect.

–PC Share: A computer or other device on a specific channel can be selected and accessed by more than one user, but only one user has keyboard and mouse control at any one time. If the PC share timeout is enabled (see the next page) and the user in control is idle (no keyboard or mouse activity) for the duration of the timeout, the first other user to type at their keyboard or move their mouse will be given keyboard and mouse control of the PC.
