3.6.12 USER TIMEOUT

Accessed from menu: GLOBAL PREFERENCES

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

When no keyboard or mouse data has been received from the active user port for the user timeout period the LINDY CPU Switch 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.
