The OSD offers an advanced password security system made up of three different security levels, each hav-
ing its own access rights.
Administrator (Status A): The Administrator has access to all features of the KVM, allowing them to
set/modify all passwords and security profiles, gain full access to any computer connected to the KVM
and usage of all OSD features.
Supervisor (Status S): The Supervisor has full access to all computers connected to the KVM and can
use the Auto Scan (F4), Tuning (F5) and Confirmation Label Moving (F6) functions in the OSD. The
Supervisor cannot change any of the OSD settings or security settings.
User (Status U): There can be up to six Users set up by the Administrator for access to the KVM. Users
are able to use the OSD main menu to access a connected computer and can use the Auto Scan (F4),
Tuning (F5) and Confirmation Label Moving (F6) functions in the OSD. Users do not have the ability to
use any other OSD features. The Administrator will choose which computers they have access to and
which they do not. There are three types of access the Administrator can give a User:
Y - This gives the User full access to a connected computer.
V - This gives the User view only access to a computer. Keyboard and mouse functionality
are not available.
N - This means a User is not allowed to access a connected computer. If the User attempts
to access a computer for which they are not authorized, a blank screen will appear.
