Various Remote Console Options
Start in Monitor Mode -
Check this option to open the Remote Console window
in read only mode. (No keyboard or mouse transferred to Host computer).

Exclusive Access- Enables the Exclusive Access mode at Remote Console
startup. This forces the Remote Consoles of all other users to close. No one can
open the Remote Console until this user disables the Exclusive Access or logs off.

Remote Console Type
Default Java VM
– Uses your Browser’s default Java Virtual Machine. This may
be the Microsoft JVM for Internet Explorer or Sun JRE if it is configured this
way. Use of the Sun JRE may also be forced (see below).

Sun Microsystems Java Browser Plugin - Uses Sun Microsystems Java
Browser Plugin - Sets the administration system’s Web browser to use the JRE
(Java Runtime Environment) of Sun Microsystems. JRE is used to run the code
for the Remote Console window, which is actually a Java Applet. If the Java
plug-in is not installed on your system, it will be downloaded and installed
automatically. The download is about 15 Mbytes. JRE provides a stable and
identical Java Runtime Environment across different platforms. The Remote
Console software is optimized for this JRE version and offers wider range of
functionality when run in SUN's JRE.

Tip! The software is on the Marketing & Documentation CD. So, if you have a
slow Internet connection, pre-install the JRE on your administration machine.

ActiveX control - Use an ActiveX control instead of a Java applet - This is the
ActiveX-Control of the KVM Vision Viewer - an application available separately.
You must install the viewer on your local system. See the Viewer Guide for
further information. This option only works with Microsoft Internet Explorer on
Win32 Systems. (Download KVM Vision Viewer from

www.minicom.com

).

Mouse hotkey - Used for fast mouse synchronization in Double Mouse mode and
to free the grabbed mouse when in single mouse mode.

Remote Console Button Keys - Button Keys simulate keystrokes on the remote
system that cannot be generated locally. For example `Control + Alt + Delete' on
Windows and DOS or `Control + Backspace' on Linux.

Define a new Button Key as follows:

Type the required keys e.g. Ctrl+Alt+Delete. The + sign means that the keys are
pressed together. The – sign means the keys are pressed sequentially.
