ULTRAVIEW REMOTE 2 INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL

Security
The Security set-up provides an additional administrator and user access control system that is independent from the
UltraView Remote 2 IP Access Module’s security system. The “Configure security” menu allows for setting a
configuration password and an access password that apply to both a local user and a remote network user. The
configuration password restricts access to the KVM switch module configuration menus and the access password
limits access to the connected computers.

Configuration password
To assign a “Configuration password”, select it from the “Configure security” menu and press enter. An input box will
appear. Type in the desired configuration password (case sensitive, 8 chars max) and press enter. A confirmation
box will display, re-type the password and press enter. When the password is saved, the next time the configuration
menu is called up (<Ctrl>, F12), this password must be entered.
Access password
This feature is used to restrict unauthorized access to the connected computers. To assign an access password,
select it from the menu and press enter. Enter this password the same way as you entered the configuration
password. When the UltraView is powered on or if you disconnect from a computer, a login box will display
requesting the access password.
Access time (minutes)
The access time setting is used to automatically log out of a switch after the set time period. When there is no
keyboard or mouse activity for this time setting, the user is automatically logged out. To change this value, select it
from the menu and hit enter. An input box will display for a new access time value. Enter the new time in minutes
and hit enter. Valid times are 1 to 999 minutes.
Logging off the system
To log off the system and lock the keyboard enter <Ctrl> and the L key to disconnect from the switch. To gain
access to the connected computers, an access password must be entered if one has been assigned.
