Set Logout
Timeout
If there is no input from the console for the amount of time set with this function, the operator is
automatically logged out. A login is necessary before the console can be used again. This enables
other operators to gain access to the computers when the original operator is no longer accessing
them, but has forgotten to log out. To set the timeout value, enter a number from 1-180 minutes,
then press [
ENTER]. If the number is 0 (zero), this function is disabled. Default is Off.
Note: This feature does not function if Set Login Mode is disabled (see page 19).
