Remote Session Operation (continued)

Control Panel (continued)

Screen Options – This section allows you to make Full Screen Mode and Keep Screen Size the default settings when a remote session is activated. Note: Keep Screen Size is not available when using the Java clients.

Check the Full Screen Mode checkbox to display the remote screen in Full Screen Mode starting with the next time you login to a remote session.

Check the Keep Screen Size checkbox to enable the Keep Screen Size feature starting with the next time you login to a remote session.

Bus Info – The B064-Series KVM Switch allows multiple users to access the connected computers simultaneously, with each user accessing one bus. In addition, multiple users can log onto the same bus at the same time, and share a remote session. The amount of buses is the same as the total number of simultaneous users. For example, a B064-032-02-IPG allows 3 users (2 remote, 1 local) to simultaneously access connected computers, and therefore has 3 buses. When 3 users are logged on at the same time, each would be accessing the KVM on a separate bus. When a fourth user logs on, they are logged onto the first bus, which they are sharing with the first logged on user.

When the Bus Info checkbox in the Customize Control Panel screen is checked, the bus (channel) being accessed and the number of users on that bus (channel) is displayed in the control panel text bar. For example, C1/2 would signify that you are accessing the connected computers on bus (channel) 1, and there are 2 users currently accessing bus (channel) 1 at the same time.

Snapshot – The Snapshot section allows you to determine where snapshots are sent to, what file type they are saved as; and, if saved

as a JPEG, the quality of the JPEG image. Although the Snapshot section is available to both Windows and Java users, the two differ in the types of files that can be saved. The Windows clients allow you to choose between a BMP and a JPEG file, whereas the Java clients allow you to choose between PNG and JPEG.

Path – To select a location for snapshots to be saved in, click on the Browse button next to the Path field. Navigate to the desired location and select it.

Format – Check the button of the file type that you want the snapshot to be saved in.

JPEG Quality – If you select to save snapshots as JPEGs, you can adjust the quality of the JPEG image here. The higher the quality of the image, the larger the file size.

Keyboard Pass Through – When selected, the [Alt, Tab] function will be sent to the remote computer. When it is not selected, the [Alt, Tab] function is sent to the local computer. It is deactivated by default.

Exit – Click this icon to exit the remote session.

Lock LEDs – These icons display the status of the keyboard Num Lock, Caps Lock and Scroll Lock LEDs. You can click on them to toggle the corresponding lock function on/off. When first initiating a remote session, you may have to toggle these off/on to make sure they are synced up with your keyboard.
