4.6 Setting and using the security password
There are many situations where unrestricted access to computers or sensitive information needs to be controlled.
In such circumstances, the C5 KVM local unit may be locked away in a room or secure cabinet and the computer
may be controlled remotely from the remote unit.
The C5 KVM incorporates a security password system that enables the remote unit to be locked so that the secure
computer cannot be controlled. Once a password has been set the C5 KVM remote unit may be disabled by
pressing the hotkeys together with the L (lock) key. The remote unit may only then be unlocked by entering the
password. For example if the hotkeys are set to CTRL and SHIFT then pressing the following key combination
would cause the C5 KVM remote unit to lock –
bjL
When the remote unit is locked the video is switched off and the keyboard and mouse are disconnected from the
computer. Locking the remote unit does not affect the operation of the local unit.
