Keystrokes

Keyboard inputs do not affect the local computer except for [Alt + Tab] and [Ctrl + Alt + Del]. These two key sequences are retained on the local system to enable the use to switch among applications and to recover from disaster.

In order to provide the [Alt + Tab] and [Ctrl + Alt + Del] functions on the remote system, one of the Function Keys must be used as a Substitute for the [Alt] key.

For example, the F12 key could substitute for the Alt key, in which case [F12 + Tab] substi- tutes for [Alt + Tab]; and [Ctrl + F12 + Del] substitutes for [Ctrl + Alt + Del]. See Configuring the Hotkeys on p. 20 for details on setting up a substitute key.

Note: While any Function Key can be used for the Substitute key, be sure you do not use one that is being used for another action.

Mouse Synchronization

While the B014-000 connection is open, mouse movements do not have any affect on your local system. Instead they are captured and sent to the remote system.

The local mouse movement may periodically become out of synchronization with the remote system's mouse pointer, especially if you change video resolution. There are three quick meth- ods that can be used to bring the two pointers back into sync:

1.Moving the mouse pointer over the Arrow in the OSD panel and right clicking

2.Moving the mouse pointer into the OSD panel and then moving it back out again

3.Performing an Auto Sync with the Video Adjustment function (see Video Adjustment, p. 20 for details).

If performing the above does not resolve the problem, do the following:

1.Invoke the Adjust Mouse action with the Adjust Mouse hotkeys (see p. 20 for details).

2.Move the local mouse pointer exactly on top of the remote mouse pointer and Click.
