a user logs out.

Hotkey Prefix (default Ctrl-a) ^a l (lowercase L). The IOLAN prompts the
user for a password and a confirmation.
Default: Disabled
Hotkey Prefix The prefix that a user types to lock a serial port or redraw the Menu.
Data Range:
z ^a l—(Lowercase L) Locks the serial port until the user unlocks it. The
user is prompted for a password (any password, excluding spaces) and
locks the serial port. Next, the user must retype the password to unlock the
serial port.
z ^r—When you switch from a session back to the Menu, the screen may
not be redrawn correctly. If this happens, use this command to redraw it
properly. This is always
Ctrl R, regardless of the Hotkey Prefix.
You can use the
Hotkey Prefix key to lock a serial port only when the Allow
Port Locking parameter is enabled.
Default: Hex 01 (Ctrl-a, ^a)
Idle Timeout Use this timer to close a connection because of inactivity. When the Idle
Timeout
expires, the IOLAN will end the connection.

Range: 0-4294967 seconds (about 49 days)
Session Timeout Use this timer to forcibly close the session/connection when the Session
Timeout
expires.
Default:
0 seconds so the port will never timeout

Session Strings
Controls the sending of ASCII strings to serial devices at session start as
follows;
z Send at Start—If configured, this string will be sent to the serial device
on power-up of the IOLAN or when a kill line command is issued on this
serial port. If the "monitor DSR" or "monitor DCD" options are set, the
string will also be sent when the monitored signal is raised.
Range: 0-127 alpha-numeric characters
Range: Hexadecimal 0-FF
z Delay after Send—If configured, will inset a delay after the string is sent
to the device. This delay can be used to provide the serial device with time
to process the string before the session is initiated or terminated.
Default: 10 ms
Dial Timeout The number of seconds the IOLAN will wait to establish a connection to a
remote modem.
Range: 1-99
Default: 45 seconds
