Querying the routing status | Adder Technology 2XPRO instruction

will clear all the computer and user names and set all parameters back to the factory defaults. To avoid activating this function by accident the administrator must confirm the reset instruction by pressing F8.

4.14 Querying the routing status

It is sometimes useful to know which KVM consoles are connected to which computers and their connection modes (shared, exclusive or video only). For example, if the SmartView denies you access to a particular computer you may wish to know if another KVM console has exclusive use of this computer and consequently is preventing your access. To query the routing status press F1 from the main on-screen menu and then select ROUTING STATUS. A routing status display similar to the one shown below will be displayed for 10 seconds. Press ESC to quit or wait for the routing status screen to disappear.

4.15 Using the dual access ports (1 and 3)

The SmartView 2XPro is fitted with one dual access port and the SmartView 4XPro is fitted with two dual access ports. These dual access ports have connectors that enable a local KVM (Keyboard, Video monitor and Mouse) to be attached and a connector that enables a remote AdderLink or AdderLink Gold to be attached. Either the local KVM, connected directly to the SmartView, or the remote KVM, connected to the AdderLink extender, may be used to access the SmartView. The video picture
