F6 Broadcast Mode (BRC)
F6 is an Administrator only function. Clicking the F6 field, or pressing [F6], invokes Broadcast (BRC) Mode.
When this function is in effect, commands sent from the console are broadcast to all available computers on the
installation.
This function is particularly useful for operations that need to be performed on multiple computers, such as
performing a system-wide shutdown, installing or upgrading software, etc.
BRC works in conjunction with the F2 LIST function. The LIST function (see page 17) lets you tailor the list
of ports the OSD will display on the OSD Main Screen. When a command is broadcast, it is done only to the
Ports currently displayed on the OSD Main Screen.
• A Speaker symbol appears before the Port ID Display to indicate BRC Mode is in effect.
• The mouse will not function while the BRC Mode is in effect. You must exit the BRC Mode in order to
regain control of the mouse.
• To exit BRC Mode, invoke the OSD (with the OSD Hotkey), then click the
Function
Allows the Administrator to define a User's access to the computers in the installation on a
Port-by-Port basis. For each User, select the target Port and press the [Spacebar] to cycle
through the choices: F (Full access), V (View Only), or blank. Repeat until all access rights
have been set, then press [Enter]. The default is V for all users on all Ports.
Note: A blank setting means that access rights have not been granted. The Port will not
appear on the User's LIST on the Main Screen.
The OSD settings will not correspond to a new configuration if the position of one of the
Stations in the daisy chain is changed. This function directs the OSD to rescan the Station
positions of the entire installation and updates the OSD so that the OSD Station information
corresponds to the new physical layout. Note: Only the Station Numbers get updated. All
Administrator settings (such as Set Accessible Ports, Set Quick View Ports, etc.), for all of
the computers affected by the change, have to be manually redone. The only exception to
this is Port Names.
In order to upgrade the KVM's firmware (see page 22-24), the Firmware Upgrade Mode
must be invoked.
This setting selects which consoles (internal/external) are enabled:
0 Both consoles enabled
1 LCD console only
2 External console only
Use the spacebar to cycle to the choice you want. The default is 0.
Scan/Skip Mode, a Left/Right Triangle symbol appears before its Port ID
[Esc] or [Spacebar].
