Troubleshooting

Forgotten master password.

You can reset the master password using the serial interface on the unit. Use the S command, and type a new password. The old password is not required for this procedure.

Remote mouse and local mouse don't line up.

Use the Mouse resync command in the main menu or press the Resync button on the Bribar. If the mouse pointers still don't line up, verify that mouse acceleration has been disabled.

NOTE: The Windows login screen does not accept the “mouse acceleration” configuration, and always has the mouse accelerated regardless of your configuration. Therefore, on this screen it is best to avoid using the mouse.

After resync, the mouse pointers are still not aligned.

Use the video adjust menu to position your video image exactly where it should be. Normally a slight video positioning error is perceived as a mouse sync issue. A video positioning error is visible as a black line along the top or bottom (and right or left) edges of the remote screen. Remember to save your position changes!
