Chapter 6. Windows Client Port Operation

Windows Client Control Panel

The Windows Client Control Panel consists of an icon bar at the top, with two text bars below it. Ordinarily, the text bars display the video resolution and IP address of the device at the remote location. As the mouse pointer moves over the icons in the icon bar, however, the text bar information changes to describe the icon's function.

The functions that the icons perform are described in the table below.
