Manual Chapter 2. Operating The MXU2
• The Ch. ID column indicates the physical channel to which each computer is
connected.
• The Name column lists the computer name.
• The Stat column shows each channel's security class on the left side of the
column, and the channel-specific scan rate—in seconds—on the right side of the
column. (See Channel Configuration on page 12 for instructions on changing a
channel’s computer name, security class, and scan rate.)
3. The highlight bar is used to select a channel for connection to the local user console.
Each channel’s availability is visually indicated by the following text colors:
• Black—no computer connected or computer is powered down
• Green—channel is active and available
• Red—unavailable, in use by another user
• Purple—connected to a second tier unit, first path.
• Blue-connected to a second tier unit, second path.
• White—current status unknown
If the security class of a channel is shown in red, the channel cannot be selected due
to security restrictions.
A small red triangle points to the name of the computer—if any—to which you are
currently connected.
