NUMBER + PORT NAME) (default); the port number alone (PORT NUMBER);
or the port name alone (PORT NAME).

ports in Auto Scan mode (see “F7: SCAN” on page 17). Key in a value from 1-255
seconds, then press the Enter key. Default is 5 seconds; a setting of 0 disables the
SCAN function.

ALL - All the ports which have been set accessible (see “SET ACCESSIBLE
PORTS” on page 15)
QUICK VIEW - Only those ports which have been set to accessible and have been
selected as quick view ports (see “SET QUICK VIEW PORTS” on page 16)
POWERED ON - Lists only the ports which have been set to accessible and have
their attached servers powered on
QUICK VIEW + POWERED ON - Lists only the ports that have been selected as
quick view ports, and that have their attached servers powered on.

only he has Quick View setting rights (see “SET QUICK VIEW PORTS” on
page 16 for details)

cause the screen to go blank when the selected amount of time has elapsed with no
