To set the Mouse Settings mode:

1.Click on the icon in the remote session toolbar, and choose the Mouse Settings option. The Mouse Settings window appears.

You can manually select among the following:

Absolute Mouse Position (Microsoft Windows) – Absolute Mouse Position (Microsoft Windows) mode should be used if the

Target Server’s operating system is Windows ME or later. The Absolute Mouse Position (Microsoft Windows) function automatically sends the mouse coordinates to the remote session, providing optimal synchronization. You do not need to manually configure any mouse settings when Absolute Mouse Position is selected. Note: Absolute Mouse Position mode cannot be used for Target Servers connected with a B078-101-PS2 SIU.

Absolute Mouse Position (Linux) – Absolute Mouse Position (Linux) mode should be used if the Target Server uses a Linux operating system, such as Ubuntu. The Absolute Mouse Position (Linux) function automatically sends the mouse coordinates to the remote session, providing optimal synchronization. You do not need to manually configure any mouse settings when Absolute Mouse Position is selected. Note: Absolute Mouse Position mode cannot be used for Target Servers connected with a B078-101-PS2 SIU.

Relative Mouse Position, OS-Generic – Relative Mouse Position, OS-Generic mode should be used if the other mouse settings modes are not performing satisfactorily. When this mode is in effect, the user must focus the mouse within the remote session window by clicking inside of it. From then on the mouse remains captured, and any mouse movement will remain within the borders of the remote session window. To exit out of this mode, press [Ctrl] + [Alt].

Relative Mouse Position, OS-Specific – Relative Mouse Position, OS-Specific mode should be used when the Target Server is running Linux operating systems other than Ubuntu, or Windows operating systems prior to ME. When selected, additional settings are provided that allow you to manually configure the Mouse Settings according to your Target Server’s OS (see the Relative Mouse Position, OS-Specific Mode section in this manual for details on the available settings).
