Table 3. Keyboard commands
When you first start using a KVM station, it may require you to login. If the KVM station requires a login, the login box, shown in Figure 27, will display. The login box appears when a Unit is powered on, when a user logs off, or when a preset time interval passes with no keyboard or mouse activity. If a login is required, type in your User ID and press [Enter]. (User ID is the user name defined on the configure user menu) If the user ID is validated, you can then type in your password and press [Enter]. If the password is validated, the KVM station can be accessed. A user may login with the same user ID and password at more than one KVM station. Both the User ID and password are case sensitive.
