User Manual

Base Unit Dialog Tab 22
HID Corp.
AIR ID checks the defined proximity area for a valid authorized
Badge. If one is found, the screensaver execution is terminated
immediately and control is returned to the user. In Windows 95/98
you will notice the cursor turns to an hourglass briefly during this
checking procedure. If no valid badge is detected, the display,
keyboard and mouse are secured while the Ctrl-Alt-Del (and on
the newer keyboards, the special Windows key) are disabled until
a valid user Badge is found, or valid password is entered.
Screen Saver Wait Time when no Base Unit
Attached
This option allows a second wait time to be used when AIR ID
detects the Base Unit has not been attached. This setting is
convenient for docking station users who bring their notebook
computers home or on the road and do not require the security of
AIR ID. AIR ID will use this alternate wait time so that the
screensaver is not activated so aggressively when manual entry is
required due to no Base Unit being attached.
The option is entered in seconds. For a setting of 10 minutes
before the screensaver is launched enter 600 (seconds).
Once a key on the keyboard is pressed, or the mouse is moved
and no valid Badge is detected, you will receive a Password
Dialog Box. This permits you to manually enter a valid password
and gain access to the system If the two-factor option has not
been selected.
