3.13.4 Device connection defaults

Device connection sets global habits for how Studio reaches devices. It does not change a specific device’s host/IP, username, or password.

Main options​

Defaults are fine unless you hit a concrete issue or team policy says otherwise.

SettingWhen it matters
Auto-reconnectDevice drops briefly; you want it online again without manual retry
Connection timeoutSlow network or slow boot; SSH often times out too early
Per-device SSH concurrency capMany terminals, file jobs, or Moss tasks on one device
LAN collaborationSame-LAN multi-PC / multi-device teamwork
Online check intervalMany devices, or you need faster offline/online visibility

Auto-reconnect​

Leave on. Studio retries after short outages or reboots. Turn off only when devices stay offline on purpose and reconnect noise is annoying.

Connection timeout​

How long Studio waits for SSH during connect. Increase for slow links or cold boots; local stable LANs rarely need changes.

Per-device SSH concurrency cap​

Too many parallel SSH sessions, transfers, and Moss jobs can queue new work. Leave default unless devices and network clearly have headroom.

LAN collaboration​

Leave off for solo work. Enable only when your team coordinates multi-machine / multi-device tests on the LAN.

Online check interval​

Defaults are fine with few devices. With many devices or heavy network load, you may lower check frequency; raise it when you need quicker online/offline feedback.
