Using a Special Application
Configure the Special Applications screen as required.
On your PC, use the application normally. Remember that only one (1) PC can use each
Special application at any time. Also, when 1 PC is finished using a particular Special Ap-
plication, there may need to be a "Time-out" before another PC can use the same Special
Application. The "Time-out" period may be up to 3 minutes.
URL Filter
If you want to limit access to certain sites on the Internet, you can use this feature. The URL
filter will check each Web site access. If the address, or part of the address, is included in the
block site list, access will be denied.
On the Advanced Internet screen, select the desired setting:
Disable - disable this feature.
Block Always - allow blocking all of the time, independent of the Schedule page.
Block By Schedule - block according to the settings on the Schedule page.
Click the Configure URL Filter button to open the URL Filter screen, allowing you to create
or modify the filter strings which determine which sites will be blocked.
The URL Filter screen is displayed when the Configure URL Filter button on the Advanced
Internet screen is clicked.
