User guide
Scan mode has a lower priority than an active connection. If you or another user are connected
to a device, that device will be skipped in the scan sequence, and scan mode will proceed to
the next device unless the Shared Connections Automatically option has been selected, in
which case target devices may be shared and will not be skipped in the scan sequence. No
login error messages will appear. After your interactive session is closed, the thumbnail will be
included in the scan sequence again.
You may disable a device thumbnail from the scan sequence. The thumbnail image remains, but
it is not updated until it is once again enabled.
When running scan mode, it is recommended that logging of the following events (enabled by
default) be disabled in the DSView software system. Each thumbnail scan will result in the
logging of these events. The event log could grow to a huge size if the following events are
enabled and scan mode is run continuously for a lengthy amount of time:
