Mouse and Keyboard Control of the Source Computer

The keyboard and mouse of the computer that is running QGE 100 Administrator or QGE 100 Viewer can be set up to control (emulate mouse and keyboard operation of) the source computer through the QGE 100. This is available only when the QGE is in unicast mode. (QGEs in multicast mode cannot be set up for remote control because they can have more than one viewing device connected.)

Enabling Mouse and Keyboard Control

To enable control of the source computer by the keyboard and mouse of your viewing computer through the QGE:

1.Ensure that the QGE 100 is connected between the source computer and its keyboard and mouse via the four PS/2 connectors (see “Connecting the Source Computer to the QGE 100” in the “Installation” section).

2.Ensure that the QGE is in unicast mode (the Multicast Enabled check box must be cleared; see “Configuring UDP multicast settings” on page 31).

3.From the Tools menu of the Administrator or the Viewer software main window, select Mouse & Keyboard Options.

4.Configure the mouse and keyboard options as desired (see “Configuring keyboard and mouse control options,” below).

5.On the QGE 100 Viewer main window or the QGE 100 Administrator Viewer window, select Mouse & Keyboard from the Tools menu. A check mark appears in front of this option to indicate that mouse and keyboard control is enabled. You can now start a control session (see “Starting and stopping a mouse and keyboard control session” on page 43).

Configuring keyboard and mouse control options

1.From the Tools menu of either software program main window, select Mouse & Keyboard Options. The Mouse & Keyboard Options window opens:

QGE 100 specifications

The Extron QGE 100 is a high-performance network switch engineered specifically for AV system integration. With its advanced capabilities, this device plays a crucial role in managing AV data traffic, ensuring reliable performance and efficiency in various settings such as corporate environments, educational institutions, and healthcare facilities.

One of the key features of the QGE 100 is its support for Power over Ethernet (PoE). This allows the switch to deliver both data and power to connected devices over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying installations and reducing the need for additional power sources. This is particularly beneficial for devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and AV devices in scenarios where accessibility to power outlets may be limited.

The QGE 100 also provides a robust Layer 2 switching functionality, which is essential for managing data flow within the network. Its capability to handle multiple VLANs ensures that AV traffic can be segregated effectively, thus improving network performance and security. The switch features IGMP Snooping, a protocol that optimizes multicast traffic management, ensuring that video streams reach the intended recipients without unnecessary bandwidth consumption.

In terms of connectivity, the Extron QGE 100 is equipped with multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports, facilitating high-speed data transmission for AV content. The switch's user-friendly management interface allows for straightforward configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting, streamlining operations across AV environments. Additionally, it supports link aggregation, enhancing bandwidth and redundancy when connecting multiple devices.

The QGE 100 is also designed with reliability in mind, featuring a fanless operation that minimizes noise and ensures a long lifespan. Its compact form factor allows for easy rack mounting in equipment racks, maintaining a clean and organized setup.

Another vital characteristic of the QGE 100 is its compatibility with Extron's comprehensive suite of AV control and management products. This integration capability provides users with a cohesive solution for managing their AV systems, further enhancing the overall user experience.

In conclusion, the Extron QGE 100 network switch is an essential tool for any AV system requiring efficient connectivity, power delivery, and data management.
