MATRIX SERVSWITCH™
Share
Use this field to set the “Share-mode timeout,” in seconds, for each user profile. If
the connection mode for a given profile is “Share” (see the Connect heading
above), this timeout determines how long users with that profile have to leave their
keyboard and mice idle before another user can take keyboard and mouse control
of the computer they were using. Factory default is 2 seconds; available settings are
0 seconds (instant timeout) to 9999 seconds (roughly two and three-quarter
hours). This setting is irrelevant if the profile is set to connect in a mode other
than Share.
Scan
Use this field to set the scan rate in seconds for each profile. When a user is
scanning the CPUs (see Section 6.15), the scan rate is the length of time that the
Matrix ServSwitch shows each computer’s video on the user’s screen before
changing to the next computer in sequence. Be careful: It is possible to set the
scan rate low enough that a slower-synchronizing monitor may not display any
video at all. If this occurs (typically at settings below 4 seconds), raise the scan rate
accordingly. Factory default is 5 seconds; available settings are 0 seconds (no scan
delay at all, not recommended) to 9999 seconds (roughly two and three-quarter
hours).
Logout
Use this field to set the automatic logout timeout for each profile. When logins are
enabled (see Section 4.4), this setting determines how long a user with this profile
can leave their keyboard and mouse inactive before being logged out of the system.
(Users at user stations where logins are disabled can remain connected to their
selected computers indefinitely, regardless of this setting.) Factory default is
240 minutes (4 hours) of inactivity; available settings are 1 minute to 9999 minutes
(roughly a week). You can also set this timeout to zero, which will disable
automatic logouts; if logins are enabled but automatic logouts are not, users
remain logged in until they manually log out with the [Ctrl]-L command—see
Section 6.9.
