Chapter 6. The User Interface

An explanation of the Hotkey actions is given in the table below:

Action

Explanation

 

 

Exit Remote

Breaks the connection to the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai and returns

Location

you to local client computer operation. This is equivalent to

 

clicking the Exit icon on the Control Panel. The default keys are

 

F2, F3, F4.

Adjust Video

Brings up the Video Settings dialog box. This is equivalent to

 

clicking the Video Settings icon on the Control Panel. The default

 

keys are F5, F6, F7.

Toggle OSD

Toggles the OSD Control Panel Off and On. The default keys are

 

F3, F4, F5.

Toggle Mouse

If you find the display of the two mouse pointers (local and

Display

remote) to be confusing or annoying, you can use this function to

 

shrink the non-functioning pointer down to a barely noticeable tiny

 

circle, which can be ignored. Since this function is a toggle, use

 

the hotkeys again to bring the mouse display back to its original

 

configuration. This is equivalent to selecting the Single pointer

 

type from the Mouse Pointer icon on the Control Panel. The

 

default keys are F7, F8, F9.

 

Note: The Java Control Panel does not have this feature.

Adjust Mouse

This synchronizes the local and remote mouse movements. The

 

default keys are F6, F7, F8.

Video Autosync

This combination performs an auto-sync operation. It is

 

equivalent to clicking the Video Autosync icon on the Control

 

Panel. The default keys are F8, F7, F6.

Show/Hide Local

Toggles the display of your local mouse pointer off and on. This is

Cursor

equivalent to selecting the Null pointer type from the Mouse

 

Pointer icon on the Control Panel. The default keys are F4,F5.

Substitute Ctrl key

If your local client computer captures Ctrl key combinations,

 

preventing them from being sent to the remote server, you can

 

implement their effects on the remote server by specifying a

 

function key to substitute for the Ctrl key. If you substitute the F11

 

key, for example, pressing [F11 + 5] would appear to the remote

 

server as [Ctrl + 5]. The default key is F11.

Substitute Alt key

Although all other keyboard input is captured and sent to the

 

KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai switch, [Alt + Tab] and [Ctrl + Alt + Del]

 

work on your local client computer. In order to implement their

 

effects on the remote server, another key may be substituted for

 

the Alt key. If you substitute the F12 key, for example, you would

 

use [F12 + Tab] and [Ctrl + F12 + Del]. The default key is F12.
