Miscellaneous Remote Console Settings

Start in Monitor Mode

Sets the initial value for the monitor mode. By default the monitor mode is dis- abled. In case you switch it on, the Remote Console window will be started in a read only mode.

Start in Exclusive Access Mode

Enables the exclusive access mode immediately at Remote Console startup. This forces the Remote Consoles of all other users to close. Nobody else can open the Remote Console at the same time again until you disable this feature or log off.

Mouse Hotkey

Allows to specify a hotkey combination which starts either the mouse synchroniza- tion process if pressed in the Remote Console or is used to leave the single mouse mode.

Remote Console Button Keys

Button Keys allow simulating keystrokes on the remote system that cannot be gener- ated locally. The reason for this might be a missing key or just the fact that the local operating system of the Remote Console is unconditionally catching this keystroke already. Typical examples are “Control+Alt+Delete” on Windows and DOS, that is always caught, or the key sequence “Control+Backspace” on Linux that can be used for terminating the X-Server.

In order to define a new Button Key or to adjust an existing one have a look at the rules that describe the setting for a key. In general, the syntax for a key is as follows:

[confirm] <keycode>[+->[*]<keycode>]*

A term in brackets is optional. The star at the end means that you add further keys as often as required for your case. The term “confirm” adds an confirmation dialogue that is displayed before the key strokes will be sent to the remote host.

The “keycode” is the key to be sent. Multiple key codes can be concatenated with either a plus, a minus, or an “>” sign. The plus sign builds key combinations - all the keys will be pressed until a minus sign or the end of the combination is encountered. In this case all pressed keys will be released in reversed sequence. So, the minus sign builds single, separate keypresses and keyreleases. The “>” sign releases the last key, only. The star inserts a pause with a duration of 100 milliseconds.

As an example, the key combination of Ctrl, Alt and F2 is represented by the sequence

Ctrl+Alt+F2

For a full list of key codes and aliases please refer to the Appendix E.

Note: If you need more button keys than shown use the button “More entries”. This will open a list of additional entry fields.
