Configuring MasterConsole II (One-Tier)
The Configuration Menu is used to specify your MasterConsole II configuration and to
set/change operation parameters.
1. Activate on-screen user interface by pressing the hot-key (<ScrollLock> by default)
twice rapidly.
2. Press <F4> to access the Configuration Menu. See Figure 8.
The Connected field displays the Channel ID and Name of the currently selected
computer.
The Model field displays the model number of this MasterConsole unit.
3. Use the <Tab> (forward)/<Shift-Tab> (backward) keys to highlight the desired field
and make your changes as follows:
• To change Name (default is the unit’s model number): Move to Name and type a
name up to five characters. This field is used for your identification purposes only.
• The Device field specifies the type of device connected to each channel. The
default character is ".", which indicates that the device is a computer. In a one-tier
configuration, only a computer may be connected to each channel. The Device
field settings may be changed when expanding to a two-tier configuration. See
Figure 15, page 19 for two-tier device type settings.
• To turn AutoScan ON/OFF (default is OFF): Move to Scan and press the
<Ï>/<Ð> keys to toggle. If you exit On-Screen User Interface with AutoScan ON,
MasterConsole II will scan according to the currently set mode (Individual/Global)
and scan rate.
