USING YOUR SWITCH
Scan Time and "Change All" Button
The user can reset the scan time for all computers by entering a value from 1–99 in
the edit box and clicking on the "Change All" button. The user will be asked to confirm
the action before the new time is applied.
Console Column
The console currently viewing the computer is indicated in this column.
Security Page
The Security page allows the administrator to change the computer-access permissions
for the Switch's users. There are three levels of user access to the Switch: Admin, User,
and Guest. Admin is the only user that can access the Setup pages to configure the
Switch. The administrator can restrict users and guests from accessing specific
computers. All users can switch computers and toggle the AutoScan function in the
Main page. In addition, the guest is the default user (you never have to login as
guest), so all users logoff to guest, when the account is enabled.
If the administrator has removed guest access, then when the user logs out they lose
focus on the port. All hot keys and the front panel will be disabled, with the exception
of opening IntelliView, which will present the user with the Login dialog.
The user accounts defined in the Switch can be used by individuals or groups of
individuals; the names of the users are fixed.
Note: When the guest user is enabled, it defines the minimum privileges that anyone
can access. It is possible to restrict user accounts more than the guest account; this is
a potential mistake to avoid.

User Columns (1, 2, 3, G)
These columns allow administrators to set the access rights to each port
(computer) for each user (1, 2, 3, and guest). The padlock indicates that the user
(column) will be restricted from accessing that port (row). Empty cells indicate that
the user has full access to that computer. To toggle user restrictions for a particular
port, click the corresponding cell in the list box, or select the computer row and
type the key corresponding to the user: 1, 2, 3, G (4 also toggles the
guest restrictions).

Passwords Page
The Passwords page allows the administrator to change user passwords, enable or
disable user accounts, and set the AutoLogout time.
Note: Only the administrator can change user passwords and settings. There is no
method of recovering administrator control if the administrator password is lost
or forgotten.
