records of the inactive CIMs after they are hot-plugged into a different port, select Disable.
The default Ghosting Mode setting is Enable.
• Login Sleep: This is a power-saving mode that is activated once users log in. Login Sleep
acts as a screensaver if the User Station is idle (no keyboard or mouse activity) for a specified
amount of time. When an Administrator sets this mode, it applies to a Paragon unit and its
attached configuration; individual users can change this mode in the Login Sleep field of
their User Profile screens. Edit this field and the Minutes field that follows to determine how
the system handles sleep mode. Possible values are Saver, Green, and Off. Use the Ç and È
keys to toggle between these values.
− Saver: The login screen or the OSUI are “floaters” and appear regularly in random
locations on the screen.
− Green: The monitor goes blank.
− Off: Login Sleep is disabled and the screen displays normal video indefinitely.
− If Login Sleep is set to Saver or Green, in the Minutes field, type the number of minutes
of inactivity before Login Sleep is triggered. Using leading zeroes if necessary, type in a
two-digit number of minutes from 01 to 99, or use the Ç and È keys to increment and
decrement the current value by 1 respectively. The default setting is 05. If Login Sleep is
set to “Off,” the number in this field has no effect.
• Require Password: Determines whether a user can specify a blank password, that is, delete
any existing password and have no password at all. Use the Ç and È keys to toggle between
“No” (users may delete their existing passwords) and “Yes” (the default setting; starting with
the first time they change their password, users must always specify a password). Newly
created users always start with no password, and must assign one to themselves during initial
setup.
• Default Login Name Blank: Determines whether the User Name field in the Login screen
will be blank, or if the field will contain the default user name (the first available “userxy”
name, where “xy” is a two-digit number with leading zeroes—“user01,” “user02,” and so on).
Use the Ç and È keys to toggle between “Yes” (the field is blank – the default value) and
“No” (field contains the user name).
2. When you are finished, either press Enter followed by the letter S to save your changes, or
press Esc to abort the changes and continue using the previous settings.
Video Redirection (Forced Video)
You can have any server send its video/keyboard/mouse data to any User Station other than yours.
This function is called “Forced Video” and it can be performed using either OSUI or Paragon
Manager.
As an Administrator, you can authorize specific normal users to perform this function. Both of
the authorization and operation of these users can only be done through Paragon Manager. In
addition, with Paragon Manager, you can connect to multiple Paragon II units at one time and
remotely operate the Forced Video function. See Paragon Manager User Guide for additional
information. This user guide is located on the “User Manuals & Quick Setup Guides” CD, or you
can visit Raritan’s Product Documentation Web page:

.
Those who have the permission to perform Forced Video include:
• Administrator (by default)
• Users with administrator privileges (by default)
• Users who are authorized to perform the Forced Video function; however, these users must
operate the function through Paragon Manager only instead of OSUI
