Hi Ali, That is a good point, and we addressed that by having at least one X-terminal in each control room hosted from another control area. We gave up on using most of our X-terminals though.

Here I would like to add one scenario that using single server and multiple X-terminals will create single point of failure i.e failure of the server will cause the loss of all DMs/FoxViews on X-terminals.
