User select box

This selection box displays the user ID for which the values are shown and for which the

changes will take effect. You may change the settings of other users if you have the necessary access rights.

Transmission Encoding

The Transmission Encoding setting allows changing the image-encoding algorithm that is used to transmit the video data to the Remote Console window. It is possible to optimize

the speed of the remote screen depending on the number of users working at the same time and the bandwidth of the connection line (Modem, ISDN, DSL, LAN, etc.).

Automatic detection

The encoding and the compression level is determined automatically from the available bandwidth and the current content of the video image.

Pre-configured

The pre-configured settings deliver the best result because of optimized adjustment

of compression and colour depth for the indicated network speed.

Manually

Allows to adjust both compression rate and the colour depth individually. Depending on the selected compression rate the data stream between the KVM-9000 and the Remote Console will be compressed in order to save bandwidth. Since high

compression rates are very time consuming, they should not be used while several

users are accessing the KVM-9000 simultaneously.

The standard color depth is 8 Bit (256 colors). The other color depths are intended for slower network connections in order to allow a faster transmission of data. Therefore compression level 0 (no compression) uses only 8 Bit color depth. At lower bandwidths only 4 Bit (16 colors) and 2 Bit (4 grey scales) are recommended for typical desktop interfaces. Photo-like pictures have best results with 4 Bit (16 grey scales). 1 Bit color depth (black/white) should only be used for extremely slow network connections.
