Specifying a Timeout Value
Specifying a timeout value is a way to prevent unauthorized individuals
from using the management software in the event that you forget to exit
the software and leave your management station unattended. When you
specify a timeout value, the AT-S65 management software ends the
session when it detects that there has been no activity in the amount of
time you specify as the timeout value. The default timeout value is 5
minutes.
To enter a new timeout value, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, choose System Configuration.
The System Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 22 on page 46.
2. From the System Configuration menu, select Omega Options and
press Enter.
The Omega Options menu is shown in Figure 23 on page 47.
3. Select Timeout and press Enter.
4. Enter a value from 0 (zero) to 65,535 (minutes) and press Enter.
When you enter a value of 0 (zero), there is no timeout and the session
remains active until you end the session. If you enter a value of 0, you
must always quit the management software in order not to block future
sessions and software downloads to the system. The default is 5
minutes.
The new timeout value is immediately activated on the system.
5. Return to the Main Menu.
