32.Video Settings access

In the User/Group Permissions section on page 36, it explains how to set access levels for all parameters including Video Settings access. A Remote Console user can always change Brightness, Contrast, Black level and picture positions, whatever his Video Settings access rights. A user who has permission to change the Video Settings can also change the Clock and Phase parameters and use the reset buttons.

33.Mouse synchronization

There are two ways to synchronize the host and remote mice:

(a)Choose Options / Mouse Handling / Fast Sync. This corrects a temporary, but fixed skew.

(b)Intelligent Sync If the fast sync doesn't work or the mouse settings have been changed on the host system use the Intelligent Sync option.

To do so:

1.Ensure the picture is correctly adjusted, Click Auto Adjust or manually correct the picture using the Video Settings.

2.Choose Options / Mouse Handling / Intelligent Sync.

Pressing the button usually leads to a fast sync, except when the KVM port or the video mode recently changed.

34.Mouse synchronization limitations

Synchronization may not work properly in the following cases:

1.For the intelligent sync to work, the picture MUST be correctly adjusted. Use the auto adjustment function or the manual correction in the Video Settings panel to adjust the picture. The video must also be of sufficiently good quality.

2.Special vendor-specific Mouse drivers disrupt the synchronization process. Ensure these are not on the host system

3.Windows XP has a setting 'enhanced pointer precision'. Deactivate it.
