RELEASE ALL PRIVATE
Releases all Ports that have been set to Private Mode (see Private
Mode, p. 17), so that they become accessible to all Consoles.
SET LOGOUT TIMEOUT
If a Console that has accessed a computer isn’t used for the amount
of time set with this function, the Operator is automatically logged
out. A login is necessary before the Console can be used again. This
enables the other Consoles to gain access to the computers when
the original Console is no longer accessing them, but the Operator
has forgotten to relinquish access. To set the timeout value, key in a
number from 1 - 255 minutes, then press [Enter] If the number is 0
[zero], this function is disabled. Default is 5 (five) minutes.
