USING YOUR SWITCH
ID Column
This column displays the BANK and port number of the Switch where the computer
is connected. The computer list can be sorted on this field by clicking on the
column header.
Keyboard Column
The “Keyboard” column shows the status of the current keyboard connection, and
is updated in real time. If the connection to the computer is via a PS/2 cable, a
small keyboard icon is displayed. If the keyboard connection to the computer is via
USB, the USB trident symbol is displayed. If no keyboard is detected, the cell will
be empty.
Mouse Column
The “Mouse” column shows the status of the current mouse connection, and is
updated in real time. If the connection to the computer is via a PS/2 cable, a small
mouse icon is displayed. If the mouse connection to the computer is via USB, the
USB trident symbol is displayed. If no mouse is detected, the cell will be empty.
Security Column
This column displays the security settings for the current user. If this user is blocked
from accessing a computer, a closed-padlock symbol is displayed. If the user is
allowed to access the computer, the cell is empty.
Note: The KVM administrator can prevent computers from appearing in the Main View if
the user doesn’t have rights to access them. (For additional information, see the
“Options Page” section.)
Console Column
The Console currently viewing the computer is indicated in this column by its
corresponding letter (A-D). If multiple consoles are focused on the same computer,
the letter of one that has control of the computer will appear in the console cell.
Scan Button
Click the “Scan” button or press “Alt+A” on the keyboard to activate the AutoScan
feature. This will not close IntelliView.
Setup Button
Click the “Setup” button or press “Alt+S” on the keyboard to access IntelliView’s
setup pages. If the user is not logged in as the administrator, the setup button will
not be selectable (will appear gray). The setup pages are only accessible to one
console at a time. If two administrators attempt to access the setup pages
simultaneously, the second administrator will be presented with an error message.
USING YOUR SWITCH
Login Button
Click on the “Login” button or press “Alt+L” on the keyboard to display the login
dialog box, which lets the user switch to a different “account” (see the “Login
Dialog” section).
Logout Button
Click on the “Logout” button or press “Alt+T” on the keyboard to return to “Guest”
level access. If the administrator has removed guest access, video will go black when
the user logs out of the computer, and that port will lose control of the computer.
The hot keys and the front panel are also disabled; the only command sequence the
Switch will accept is “Scroll Lock + Scroll Lock + Space” (open IntelliView), which
will present the user with the login dialog box.
Exit Button
The “Exit” button (or “Alt+X”) closes IntelliView, allowing the user an unrestricted
view and control over the computer in focus.
Administrator Setup Page
The setup page is only available to the admin user and is used to set the group
name, computer name, and computer scan times. The scan time is dependent on the
port being scanned, and is global (i.e. it’s independent of the console or user). While
scan times are independent of the user, AutoScan will skip computers that the user
does not have permission to view.
Group Column
The “Group” column displays the name of the group to which the computer has been
assigned. The group name is arbitrary text, purely for organizational purposes. The
group name can be up to eight alphanumeric characters and is assigned by the KVM
administrator. The default group name of a computer is “Group X”, where X is the
BANK number of a KVM Switch as determined by the BANK address DIP Switch. To
change the group name, click in the desired cell.
Computer Name Column
The “Computer Name” column displays the name of each connected computer. The
computer name can be up to 15 alphanumeric characters and is assigned by the KVM
administrator. The computer list can be sorted on this field by clicking on the column
header. By default, all computer names will be named BANK XX-Port YY, where XX is a
two-digit BANK address number from 00 to 15 and YY is a two-digit computer number
from 01 to 16. To input the computer name, click in the desired cell.
