Configuring automatic exiting and locking of the Client

You can set the system to automatically exit and/or lock the Client if the user stays idle for a pre-determined time, i.e. no signals come from HID devices (keyboard, mouse, joystick, etc.).

To do so:

1. Go to Settings → Options → User Interface (1–2).
   
2. In the Period of inactivity before automatic logout (hh:mm) field, enter the duration of user inactivity after which the Client should be quit (3). 
   If the field is blank or equals 00:00, the Client will not be quit.
3. Enter a value in the Period of inactivity till automatic application lock (hh:mm) field to set the time interval (4). To unlock the Client, the user has to re-login.
   

   If the field is left blank or the value is set to 00:00, no locking will occur.

   Note

   • If a viewing layout is open, no automatic blocking occurs.
   • You can lock the Client at any time using hotkeys (see Assigning hot keys, Appendix 6. Hotkeys in C-Werk).
4. Click the Apply button.

Configuration of automatic quit of the Client is now complete.
