Operation

The AdderLink IP offers you three ways to connect:

•Local connection,

•Remote connection by network link,

•Remote connection by direct dial up (modem or ISDN) link,

...and two types of viewer:

•VNC viewer,

•Standard web browser.

Local connection

The keyboard, video monitor and mouse connected directly to the AdderLink IP offer password protected access to the host computer(s).

To make a local connection:

2Enter your username and password. Providing you have the correct permissions, the screen will display the currently selected host computer.

To view the local control menu

1Press and hold the hotkeys (usually and ), then press and finally release all three keys.

Note: The and keys when pressed in combination are called ‘hotkeys’ and they signal to the AdderLink IP that you wish to control it, rather than the host computer. However, if these particular hotkeys clash with another device or program, then your administrator may change them

to a different combination. If the combination fails to work, then please contact the system administrator for details.
