9.Windows Client (continued)

9.2Windows Client OSD

After you gain control of the KVM switch, the OSD comes up with the Main page and Windows Client Control Panel displayed:

The remote OSD is the same as the local OSD, except the Log tab is not available. The Log can be accessed remotely via the Remote Main Page (see section 8.2, Webpage Layout). The Main tab (section 7.2), the Configuration tab (section 7.4) and the Administration tab (section 7.6) all function exactly as described earlier in this manual.

Note: The Administration tab is disabled for users who don’t have administration privileges.

9.3 Windows Client Control Panel

The control panel consists of an icon bar at the top, with two text bars below it. Initially, 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:
