Information Menu
When the OSUI (On Screen User Interface) is visible, activate the
Information Menu by pressing F8. This menu displays the “vital statistics”
of the user station that you are using, including its firmware, hardware,
and FPGA revisions, serial number, which console port (user port) and
port number on the Paragon switch attached to it, and the number of
KVM switches and PCs (servers) that can be accessed through it.
Concurrent Multiple Video Outputs
You can access one single channel and thus activate the video outputs
of another or several other channels at the same time. That is, when a
channel is selected in the Selection Menu, the other pre-configured
channel(s) automatically output video data to subsequent user stations.
This function is called “Multiple Video” or “Port-Following Switch.” It is
especially useful if you have a multi-channel video server, or intend to
set up a TV wall in the Paragon II system.
Performing this function requires the channel association to be
pre-configured in Paragon Manager. Only the administrator is allowed to
set up the channel association. If the desired association has not been
configured, contact your Paragon II system administrator.
Note: To download Paragon Manager, see Installing Paragon Manager
(on page 209).
