Chapter 7: Operation - Administrator Functions

 Hide Admin From Users: When Operation Mode is set to “Public
View,” the user in control of a server is normally notified when
other users start and stop viewing the channel port’s video.
However, when Hide Admin From Users is set to “Yes,”
administrators can view other users’ video without activating this
viewing-notification message. Use
and to toggle between
“Yes” and “No.” The default setting is No.
 PC Share Timeout: If Operation Mode is set to “PC Share” and
more than one user has selected a server, the first user to type or
use his/her mouse will have control of the server. However,
another user can gain control of the server if the first user’s
keyboard and mouse remain idle for the length of this timeout.
Using leading zeroes if necessary, type a two-digit number of
seconds from 01 to 99, or use the
and keys to increase and
decrease the current value by 1 respectively. The default setting is
01.
 Ghosting Mode: In a Paragon system, when a CIM (attached to a
server) or tiered device is removed from the system or turned off
(manually or accidentally), a record of the CIM or CIMs connected
to that device is reserved in the Paragon system. The target (or
port) name continues to appear in black text on the OSUI of local
user ports, and also appears with inactive status in other Raritan
clients that operate with Paragon II, such as Paragon Manager,
RRC/MPC, P2SC, and CC. If Ghosting is set to Enable, when an
active CIM is removed from one channel port and connected to
another channel port (‘hot-swapped’), you will see two identical
CIM entries on the OSUI of Paragon Clients: one in green text
(active) and another in black text (inactive). The inactive CIM is
known as a ‘ghost’ CIM. To remove 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 when
the Login screen is on the screen. Login Sleep acts as a screen
saver 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 switch 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
and
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.
