Chapter 4. OSD Operation
53
The Timeout field sets a time threshold for users on ports whose Operation
Mode has been set to Occupy (see Occupy, page 54). If there is no activity
from the user occupying the port for the amount of time set here, the user
is timed out and keyboard and mouse control on the port is released, after
which the first user to send keyboard or mouse input will occupy the port.
However, the user originally connected to the port will still see the port’s
video output.
Input a value from 0 to 255 seconds. The default is 60 seconds. A setting
of 0 causes the port to be released the instant there is no input.
