Port Configuration

To enter the Port Configuration menu: press <P> from the Administration menu. The Port Configuration menu can only be accessed when the administrator is logged-in.

The port configuration screen is used to edit the names of ports and to configure ports to be compatible with MAC or non-MAC CPUs. If the port will have a MAC CPU connected, use the mouse to click on the box associated with the port to place a check mark in the box.

Note: If a port is configured as connected to a non-MAC CPU, but is in fact connected to a MAC CPU, the mouse will still work as a generic mouse. No special functions provided by software drivers will be available.

Note: MAC mode must be enabled on any CPU ports that are connected to a CPU through an NTI ST-C5USBV extender.
