APEX VIEWPOINT SYSTEM
QUERYING POD STATUS
You can check the connection status of any user pod
or system pod in the ViewPoint system. This may be
useful when you want “full” connection (control of
keyboard and mouse) to a computer and need to
determine if another user is already connected.
To query pod status:
1
From the Commands menu in the Advanced
Menus
screen, use the DOWN ARROW key to
move the highlight to Query.
2 Press ENTER to display your own switch status
—or—
press the number key that corresponds to the
console or computer you want to query; the
Query Pod Connection screen appears with
pod number highlighted.
3 Move the highlight to Console/Computer to
find out if a console or computer is connected.
Use + or – keys to toggle between Computer or
Console.
4 Press ENTER to begin the query; the status flag
appears.
In the example shown, the status flag shows
console connection: Console 03 is connected to
Computer 9.
