3.6.12 USER TIMEOUT

Accessed from menu: GLOBAL PREFERENCES

Settings: 2, 5, 10, 30 SECONDS; 1, 5, 10 MINUTES

When two users are connected to the same computer only one can have access at any one time. When no keyboard or mouse data has been received from the active user port for the user timeout period the LINDY Dual/Quad PRO will allow other users to access the computer. The new port then becomes the active port until it too times out. To avoid confusion between users it is desirable to set the timeout period to be sufficiently long so that user's work is not needlessly interrupted by other users and sufficiently short to ensure good overall system efficiency. The user timeout value also controls the timeout between the local and remote access points on user ports 1 and 3.

3.6.13 RS232 Mouse Type

Accessed from menu: GLOBAL PREFERENCES

Settings: INTELLIMOUSE, 2 BUTTON, 3 BUTTON

These setting control the type of RS232 mouse that the LINDY Dual/Quad PRO reports to computers. All the necessary conversions are dealt with automatically with the LINDY Dual/Quad PRO. The IntelliMouse setting sends four byte mouse reports to the computers and is therefore very slightly more sluggish than the others that send three byte mouse reports. RS232 mice are almost always more sluggish than PS/2 types because the data rate is much slower.
