To avoid the ‘hall of mirrors’ effect

IMPORTANT: Never configure a system so that your viewer is viewing itself.

When controlling a host computer using the locally connected keyboard, video monitor and mouse, it is possible to use the VNC viewer or a browser (if the host computer is networked) to create a remote link back to itself. This will set up a ‘hall of mirrors’ effect, where the computer is viewing itself into infinity.

While technically possible, the LINDY KVM IP unit is not designed to withstand this treatment and could sustain damage.

Remote connections

From a remote system, you connect to the LINDY KVM IP using a viewer and a link. There are two types of viewer and two types of link, which can be used in any combination.
