42 PARAGON II USER GUIDE
To choose a server from the Selection Menu:
1. If you are not in the Selection Menu, press F2.
2. Press F12 to toggle the menu to sort-order view of your choice (by channel number or
alphabetically by device name). The entry for the channel port you currently have selected (if
any) will be highlighted and will have a small red arrow to the left of its channel port name.
Note: In the channel number view, the Selection Menu can display either all channel ports or
only those channel ports that the current user is allowed to select (the default view). If the system
administrator has set the “Display All Computers” option in the System Configuration menu to
“Yes” (see System Configuration in
Chapter 4), you can press F10 to toggle between the
restricted and unrestricted views. In the unrestricted “all channel ports” view, the Paragon
displays a red “S” next to the scan rate of any channel port that the user is not permitted to
access.
3. Use the Ç and È keys (and, for switching between pages, the Page Up and Page Down keys)
to move the highlight bar to the channel port you want to select, and then press Enter. Note
that although the highlight will move, the small red arrow to the left of the channel port name
will remain stationary, indicating the user’s currently-selected channel port, until a new
selection is made.
a. In the channel number view, once all channel ports page are assigned, you can press the
desired channel port’s key number (1 through 8) to move the highlight to that channel
port instantly.
b. In name view, you can type the first few characters of the desired channel port’s name to
move the highlight to the first channel port whose name begins with that character
sequence.
4. Press Enter
If it is a server attached to the chosen channel port and you are permitted to access it, Paragon II
automatically switches you to that channel port for normal server operation, and the OSUI
disappears. If it is a cascaded tier device attached to that channel port, an OSUI Selection Menu
specific to that tier device will appear; keep moving through the Selection Menu layers until you
reach the server you want.
Note: To return to the main Selection Menu from any second- or third-tier device-specific
Selection Menu, press the Home key on your keyboard once, or press the Esc key once or twice
depending which tier you are currently on.
