Block or Unblock a Station

You can block a user or users from the MultiPoint Services system if you need to get their attention. While users are blocked, their sessions remains active in the MultiPoint Services system's computer memory until the stations are unblocked. You can customize a message to be displayed for a blocked user.

To block a station

  1. In the MultiPoint Dashboard, select the thumbnail image of the station you want to block.

  2. On the Blocking tab, click Block, and then click Block Selected Desktop(s) or Block All Desktops.

Create a message to display for blocked users

Before you block a user, you may want to create a message to display on the user's monitor when they are blocked. For example, "Please turn your attention to the speaker." Station blocked is the default text if you do not create your own message.

  1. Click the Block drop-down menu, and then click Set Message. The Set Message for Blocked Users page opens.

  2. Type the message you want to display on the blocked station(s), and then click OK.
