Overview Congratulations on your purchase of the SONIC GUARD USB Mat for locking your computer. Now, when you walk away from your system, you will benefit from a hands-free means of locking your computer. The concept of the SONIC GUARD is easy to understand. Your computer simply “thinks” that the SONIC GUARD is a USB keyboard that is attached to your system. The SONIC GUARD sends programmable keystrokes to lock your computer when you leave the workspace. It’s that simple.
Attaching the SONIC GUARD USB Mat If your system meets these requirements, then attaching the USB Mat in your workspace is the next step. Connect the USB cable to an open USB port on your computer. Windows will load the appropriate USB keyboard drivers once the USB Mat is attached. If the USB Keyboard drivers are not currently resident on your system, you will be asked to place your Windows Operating System disk into your CD drive. Follow the directions provided by Windows during this install.
Configuration: In-Range Detection Delay / Out-of-Range Detection Delay The USB Mat has programmable delays that suppress the immediate sending of the locking sequence. This is especially useful when using the USB Mat in a private office setting where you may leave the work zone briefly and not want the system to lock. The maximum settable delay is 255 seconds. After this delay time has elapsed, the programmable key sequences are invoked.
In the above screen shot, the unit has been configured to send the CTL-ALTDEL+K+Backspace key sequence. This key sequence is used to lock Windows 2000 workstations. Note: The USB Mat units are shipped from the factory, without any keystrokes programmed into the device and therefore will not lock your computer until you configure the keystrokes. You will need to configure the USB Mat for the keystrokes you currently use to lock your computer.
