3.6.1 SECURITY

Accessed from menu: SETUP OPTIONS

Settings: DISABLED, ENABLED

With security disabled there is no requirement for users to login to the system. All users have full access to all the connected computers and full administration rights. With security enabled, users are required to login to the SmartView. Each user is allocated access rights to computers by the system administrator and they are only able to see the computers that they have access to on their on-screen menu.

3.6.2 LANGUAGE

Accessed from menu: SETUP OPTIONS

Settings: ENGLISH

This option specifies the language that is used for the on-screen menu and the keyboard layout that is assumed for the keyboard. At the time of writing this manual only English is available but more languages will become available for future firmware releases.

3.6.3 HOTKEYS

Accessed from menu: SETUP OPTIONS

Settings: CRTL+ALT, CTRL+SHIFT, CTRL+ALT, ALT GR, LEFT ALT+RIGHT ALT,

LEFT CTRL+LEFT ALT, RIGHT CTRL+RIGHT ALT, DISABLED

The keyboard hotkeys are special combinations of keys that, when used together with certain keyboard "command keys", perform special SmartView functions. For example, pressing the hotkeys together with the "M" key will cause the on-screen menu to be displayed on your monitor. Other hotkey combinations allow you to query which computer you are connected to and to move the on-screen menu around the screen. You can also use the hotkeys together with the port number to quickly select a chosen computer without activating the on-screen menu. See section 4.8 for full details on using keyboard hotkeys to control the SmartView. We do not normally recommend that you disable the hotkeys but if you choose to do this then you will need to access the on-screen menu using the SmartView's front panel controls.
