Remote Session Operation

After you have successfully logged in (see Logging Into the B064- Series KVM Switch section), the B064-Series KVM Switch OSD Main Page appears with the Port Access tab selected:

Note: The AP Client and Local Console versions feature a Control Panel in the top center of the screen that appears when scrolled over with the mouse. The web browser version’s Control Panel is only available when a port has been accessed. (See Control Panel section for details.)

All the ports that a user is permitted to access are listed in the Port Selection panel at the left of the page. Ports to which users do not have access will not be displayed in their OSD. Double-click a port icon to access the device attached to it. Once you switch to a port, its screen displays on your monitor. Depending on whether you have Full Access or View Only access to the port, you may or may not be able to operate the remote computer using your keyboard and mouse.

Control Panel

The Control Panel is provided as a way for the user to optimize and control the remote session. Regardless of whether you initiated a remote session via the Windows or Java browser and non-browser clients, the control panel and its functionality remain the same. To display the Control Panel, hover your mouse pointer over the top-center of the remote screen.

The Control Panel consists of an icon bar at the top and two text bars at the bottom. When the mouse pointer is hovered over an icon, the description of the icon is displayed in the text bar. When the mouse pointer is not over an icon, the text bars display the video resolution of the selected computer and the IP address of the KVM switch. You can drag the control panel to any location on the remote screen by hovering over the text bar, and then clicking-and-dragging it. Each of the icons contained in the Control Panel and their functionality is explained in the sections that follow.
