OCCUPY | Mode has been set to Occupy (see SET OPERATION MODE, |
TIMEOUT | page 31). If there is no activity from the user occupying the port for the |
| amount of time set here, the user is timed out and keyboard and |
| mouse control on the port is released, after which the first user to send |
| keyboard or mouse input will occupy the port. However, the user |
| originally connected to the port will still see the port’s video output. |
| Input a value from 1 to 255 seconds. The default is 30 seconds. |
