Setting User Station Security
The Administrator Functions Menu allows you to create an administrator
password, set a system logout time and create individual user logins with
specific access and privileges. This menu is only used if you are running your
system in secure mode. The table below discusses the security features.
Security Operating Modes
Feature Description
Administrator password Entering an administrator password places your system in
secure mode. A lock symbol will appear to the right of
the menu headings to indicate secure operation. Non-secure
systems do not use passwords. To return your system to the
default of non-secure mode, simply delete the administrator
password. When the administrator password is enabled, user
passwords must also be entered or the switch will not be
completely secure. The default for users is no password.
Simply hit the Enter key at the prompt.
Logout capability You have the option of automatically logging out of the system
after an administrator defi ned period of inactivity. Time-out
values can be set from ø to 60 minutes. A value of ø keeps the
user logged in continuously. When the time-out is reached,
the current channel is deselected and the display goes to
screen saver mode. Users must login again to access system
computers. This option is only available in secure mode. To
manually logout when in secure mode, press F10.
Multiple user logins You can create up to four user login accounts in addition
to the system administrator. Use these logins to confi gure
and control server access for every type of system user.
The administrator has full access privileges. Additional users
can have viewing or viewing with keyboard and mouse
control capability for each attached server. This option is only
available in secure mode.
Push-button and Hotkey While in secure mode, all front panel push-buttons and hotkey
channel selection methods are disabled. This also includes
use of the Cybex Remote Switch Panel (RSP). All other
hotkey commands remain operational to the administrator
only. In non-secure mode, all push-buttons and hotkey
commands function normally.
To access the Administrator Functions menu:
1. Press the Control key twice to access the Administrator Channel List.
2. Press the Control key twice more to access the Command Menu.
