Hi everyone,

I blundered across a workaround to the problem I described below. If I press the source button on the Sun Ray 270 to go to Sun Ray mode, and then do a stop-M to bring up the configuration menu and leave the menu on the screen, and then press the source button to go into monitor mode, it will stay in monitor mode indefinitely, which is what I wanted to have happen. If I go back to SR mode, close the menu, and go back into monitor mode, it will cycle back to SR mode in 1-2 minutes. So the workaround works reliably but I'm guessing it wasn't designed that way.

Hi everyone,

I use a Sun Ray 270 to connect to a local SR server. Now I want to also use the 270 as a second monitor on my local workstation (which is not the SR server). What I found is that if the SR server is running, all is well. The source button on the 270 switches me back and forth between monitor mode and SR mode and it works perfect. However, when I power off the SR server I run into a problem. I can still use the 270's source button to put the 270 into monitor mode. But after about or 2 minutes the 270 switches itself back to SR mode with the 27B window floating around. I push the source button again and I'm back in monitor mode for another minute or two. But it will again switch back to SR mode for no apparent reason. If I fire up the SR server and then put the 270 into monitor mode it will stay in monitor mode until I press the source button or power off the SR server.

So how can I make the 270 stay in monitor mode when there is no SR server running?

Thanks, Mike
