Chapter 6: Video Viewer 88
Adjusting Mouse Options
The Video Viewer mouse options affect cursor type, scaling, alignment, and resetting. Mouse
settings are device-specific; that is, they can be set differently for each target device.
NOTE: If the server does not support the ability to disconnect and reconnect the mouse (almost all newer PCs
do), then the mouse will become disabled and the server must be rebooted.

Cursor type

The Video Viewer offers five display choices for the local mouse cursor. You can also select no
cursor or the default cursor.
To change the mouse cursor setting:
1. Select Tools — Session Options from the Video Viewer menu. The Session Options window
opens.
2. Click the Mouse tab.
3. Select a mouse cursor type in the Local Cursor area.
4. Click OK.

Scaling

You can select any of three preconfigured mouse scaling options or set custom scaling. The
preconfigured settings are: Default (1:1), High (2:1) or Low (1:2).
• In a 1:1 scaling ratio, every mouse movement on the desktop window sends an equivalent
mouse movement to the target device.
• In a 2:1 scaling ratio, the KVM server module mouse movement sends a 2X mouse movement.
