The Control Panel

The Control Panel consists of three rows: a row of icons at the top, with two text rows below. The Control Panel is only available when accessing the KVM switch remotely, and will not be accessible via the local console.

Ordinarily, the text bars display the video resolution and IP address of the device at the remote location. As the mouse pointer moves over the icons in the icon bar, the information in the text bar changes to describe the icon’s function. To move the Control Panel to a different location on the screen, place the mouse pointer over the text bar area, and click and drag it to the desired location.
