Is there a way to tell if someone else is already connected to a Flex-6xxx radio?

I picked up a Flex-6400 radio and since I'm currently in an apartment.  A friend of mine is hosting the radio for me with one of his several antennas.    There are a couple of other radio friends that we have access to the radio also.

So the question is, is there a way to query the radio to find out of someone is already connected to it?  We don't want to step on each others feet while using the radio.  An API call that I can call from a webpage that will say the radio is in use?

    Hi Dave,  The connect window choice that first comes up with Maestro or SSDR will list the radio and also show wherther it is "in use" or "available" to connect to.    If it is use there will be a "disconnect" button on the connect screen that can be use to force disconnect the current user.

    I believe smartlink will say radio in use if a second person tries to log in.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
