Chapter 4. Administration
Set the port’s Share mode according to the information in the following table:
Attribute | Action |
|
|
Exclusive: | The first user to occupy the port has exclusive control over it. |
| No other user can view or access it. |
|
|
Occupy: | The first user to occupy the port has control over it. Up to 31 |
| additional users can view its video output, however. The |
| Timeout function discussed on page 57 applies to ports that |
| have this setting. |
|
|
Share: | Allows up to 32 users to simultaneously share control over the |
| port. User input is placed in a queue and executed on a first |
| sequentially. In addition, a user can access the KL9108 / |
| KL9116’s Message Board function to gain control of the |
| keyboard and mouse, or keyboard, video, and mouse of a |
| Share designated port. See The Message Board, page 81. |

The Timeout field sets a time threshold for users on ports whose Share Mode has been set to Occupy (see Occupy:, page 57). If there is no activity from the user occupying the port for the amount of time set here, the user is timed out and the port is released. The first user to send keyboard or mouse input after the port has been released gets to occupy the port.
Input a value from 0 to 255 seconds. The default is 3 seconds. A setting of 0 causes the port to be released the instant there is no input.
