Manual Mouse Synchronization

If the local mouse pointer goes out of sync with the remote system’s mouse pointer, there are a number of methods to bring them back into sync.

Before trying any mouse synchronization procedures, it is always a good idea to ensure that you go to your Mouse Properties Settings and set them according to the instructions that follow. The Mouse Properties Settings should be set on the computers attached to the B064-Series KVM Switch, not the computer you are using to access it. Note: In order for the local and remote mice to synchronize, you must use the generic mouse driver supplied with the MS operating system. If you have a third party driver installed - such as one supplied by the mouse manufacturer - you must remove it.

Windows 2000:

1.Open the Mouse Properties dialog box

2.Click the Motion tab

3.Set the mouse speed to the middle position (6 units in from the left)

4.Set the mouse acceleration to None

Windows XP and later:

1.Open the Mouse Properties dialog box

2.Click the Pointer Options tab

3.Set the mouse speed to the middle position (6 units in from the left)

4.Disable Enhance Pointer Precision

Sun / Linux:

Open a terminal session and issue the following command: Sun: xset m 1

Linux: xset m 0

Mouse Synchronization Procedures

If you are having syncing problems after adjusting the mouse properties, try the following methods to help synchronize the local and remote mouse pointers. Note: Mouse synchronization may require several seconds to take effect. Wait for 15 to 30 seconds to ensure that the mouse has had enough time to sync.

When in a remote session, move the mouse pointer to the upper- center of the screen to open the control panel, and then move it back into the remote screen. The mouse pointers should align.

Click the Video Auto Sync icon in the control panel. In most cases, the local and remote mouse pointers will sync following the video auto sync.

Invoke the Adjust Mouse hotkey command (see Hotkeys section under Control Panel for details). This hotkey command defaults at F8, F7, F6.

Adjust the video settings to decrease the amount of information being transferred over the network. The less data that is being sent, the faster the response time. In particular, the Quality and Detect Tolerance settings in the Video Settings screen (see Video Settings section under Control Panel for details) can help improve keyboard and mouse response time.

Go to the Network page in the OSD and reduce the Network Transfer Rate setting. (See Network section under Device Management in OSD Operation for details.)

Go to the display settings section of the remote computer and lower the video resolution, refresh rate and color settings.

If the remote computer has a graphic desktop background, change it to a solid color background.
