4. AdderView GEM configuration options

All the options described in this section are entered in AdderView GEM configure mode - see section 2.6 for instructions on entering configure mode.

4.1 Screen saver time delay

AdderView GEM contains a programmable screen saver which will blank the display after the set time delay with no keyboard or mouse activity. Simply typing at the keyboard or moving the mouse will re-enable the display. The display will flash whilst the AdderView GEM is in screen save mode.

B1 - screen saver disabled (default)

B2 - Blank screen after 1 minute of inactivity

B3 - Blank screen after 2 minutes of inactivity

B4 - Blank screen after 4 minutes of inactivity

B5 - Blank screen after 8 minutes of inactivity

B6 - Blank screen after 12 minutes of inactivity

B7 - Blank screen after 16 minutes of inactivity

B8 - Blank screen after 20 minutes of inactivity

4.2 Autoscan ‘lock on’ mode and delay time

AdderView GEM can be set to select each channel in turn for a period of time set by the autoscan delay time. Autoscan mode is entered by typing the hotkey keys together with ‘A’. By default, only those channels which have a powered up computer connected to them will be scanned. Sometimes it may be desirable to scan all channels, even if the attached computer is switched off (this will simply show a blank screen when it is selected). All the AdderView GEM’s ports will be scanned if option L2 is selected. Some applications may also require the AdderView GEM to power on in autoscan mode. This feature can be selected using the L3 or L4 options.
