23.9.3.1 USB

The USB option in Mouse Settings box is available for RICC and X-RICC USB
and Phantom Specter USB and for unsupported operating systems and SUN
Solaris. Use this option if you are sure of the custom acceleration algorithm you are
using, or have been informed so by customer support.

23.9.3.2 Advanced – Mouse Emulation

In the Advanced Mouse settings, you can set the type of mouse that you would like
IP Control to emulate. We recommend not changing the advanced settings unless
there is erratic mouse behavior (the mouse is making random clicks and jumping
arbitrarily around the screen).

Click

the Mouse Emulation box appears see Figure 22.

Select the mouse connected to the Local Console port on the IP Control, e.g. if the
local mouse is a non-Microsoft 2 button mouse, select Standard Mouse and
uncheck Microsoft Mouse.

Switch Acceleration - In some KVM switch brands (for example G&D, Rittal),
the switch accelerates the mouse on top of the acceleration provided by the
operating system. If necessary, check this option to compensate (decelerate) the
switch acceleration and achieve full synchronization.

Max Rate - this defines the maximum mouse report rate. For Sun Solaris the
default value is 20 in order to support older Sun versions.
