9.3.2 Video Adjustment

You can adjust the placement and the picture quality of the remote screen (as displayed on your local monitor) with the Video Options function. To do so, either click on the Hammer icon on the Control Panel, or use the Adjust Video hotkeys (see section 9.3.1, Hotkey Setup). The following screen appears:

The meanings of the adjustment options are given in the table below:

Option

Usage

 

Adjust the horizontal and vertical position of the

Screen Position

remote computer window by Clicking the Arrow

 

buttons.

 

Click Auto-Sync to detect the vertical and horizontal

 

offset values of the remote screen and automatically

 

synchronize it with the local screen.

 

If the local and remote mouse pointers are out of

Auto-Sync

sync, in most cases, performing this function will

bring them back into sync.

 

 

Note: This function works best with a bright screen.

 

If you are not satisfied with the results, use the

 

Screen Position arrows to position the remote

 

display manually.

 

Drag the slider bars to adjust the RGB (Red, Green,

 

Blue) values. When an RGB value is increased, the

RGB

RGB component of the image is correspondingly

 

increased. If you enable Set to Grayscale, the

 

remote video display is changed to grayscale.

 

This section allows you to adjust the video display’s

Gamma

gamma level. This function is discussed in detail in

 

the next section, Gamma Adjustment.

 

Drag the slider bar to adjust the overall Video

 

Quality. Values can be from 20 to 100. The larger

Video Quality

the value, the clearer the picture and the more video

data goes through the network. Depending on the

 

 

network bandwidth, a high value may adversely

 

effect response time.

Option

Usage

 

The NetDirector Console KVM Switch with IP

 

Access can redraw the screen every 1 to 99

 

seconds, eliminating unwanted artifacts from the

Enable Refresh

screen. Select Enable Refresh and enter a number

from 1 through 97. The KVM switch will redraw the

 

 

screen at the interval you specify. This feature is

 

disabled by default. Click to put a check mark in the

 

box next to Enable Refresh to enable this feature.

 

This setting adjusts the amount of color information

 

for the video data sent over the network. The higher

Color Depth Control

the color setting, the greater the data. For slow data

connections, drag the slider bar to a lower setting to

 

decrease the amount of video data transferred. This

 

ensures screen refresh at workable speeds.

 

Adjusts the transparency of the toolbars displayed

Transparency

by the Windows and Java Client applications. Slide

the bar until the display in the Demo window is to

 

 

your liking.

Gamma Adjustment

If it is necessary to correct the gamma level for the remote video display, use the Gamma function of the Video Adjustment dialog box.

Under Basic configuration, there are ten preset and four user-defined levels to choose from. Drop down the list box and choose the most suitable one.

For greater control, clicking the Advanced button brings up the following dialog box:

Click and drag the diagonal line at as many points as you wish to achieve the display output you desire.

Click Save As to save up to four user-defined configurations derived from this method. Saved configurations can be recalled from the list box at a future time.

Click Reset to abandon any changes and return the gamma line to its original diagonal position.

Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog box.

Click Cancel to abandon your changes and close the dialog box.

Note: For best results, change the gamma while viewing a remote computer.
