SET LOGOUT TIMEOUT | If there is no input from the console for the amount of time |
| set with this function, the Operator is automatically logged out. A |
| login is necessary before the console can be used again. |
| This enables other Operators to gain access to the computers when |
| the original Operator is no longer accessing them, but has forgotten |
| to log out. To set the timeout value, key in a number from 1 - 180 |
| minutes, then press [Enter]. If the number is 0 [zero], this function |

| the choice. Press [Enter]. |

| Case does not matter; the OSD displays the Port Name in all |
| capitals no matter how they were keyed in. |
| 3. When you have finished editing, press [Enter] to have the change |
| take effect. To abort the change, press [Esc]. |
RESTORE DEFAULT VALUES | This function is used to undo all changes and return the setup to the |

| Ports, which are saved. |
