

Both Console LEDs turn On;

 Either console may take control of the computer.

4. To terminate Auto Mode access, repeatedly press the

MANUAL/AUTO Button until the desired console controls the

Timeout

In Auto Mode, the setting of DIP switch pins 1 and 2 determines

the amount of time that passes from the last input by the

controlling console to when the console lock is released. Refer to

the DIP Switch Settings Table, page 11, for the pin settings and

their corresponding Timeout lengths. (See page 9 for more

information about Auto Mode.)

Note: For best results, set the DIP switch pins BEFORE turning

on either the CS-231 or the computer.

Private Mode (Console 1)

Private Mode operates within Auto Mode. In Private Mode, the

Console 1 user can control the computer, while preventing the

Console 2 user from viewing and controlling the computer. The

Timeout Period does not apply in Private Mode.

To enter Private Mode:

1. Make sure that the device is in Auto Mode and that DIP

switch pin 3 is set to the On position.

2. Wait for the Timeout period to expire.

3. From the keyboard of Console 1, press the Shift key six

times within two seconds.

After the Timeout Period expires, Console 1 will display the

computer desktop and have control of the computer. A

message appears on the monitor of Console 2 indicating that

the system is in use. After 10 seconds, the message

disappears and the monitor displays a black background. If
