Host system mouse settings
The host operating system has various settings for the mouse driver. Smart 16 IP
works with accelerated mice and is able to synchronize the host with the client
mouse pointer. This is further discussed on page 14.
The following may prevent proper mouse synchronization.
Special vendor-specific Mouse drivers disrupt the synchronization process.
Ensure these are not on the host system
Windows XP has a setting ' enhanced pointer precision’. Deactivate it.
Check the correct setting by moving the mouse of your administration system to
the upper left corner of the Remote Console and moving it there slightly forth and
back. This will force mouse synchronization in that corner of the screen. Once
that is done you may observe the behavior of your client mouse in accordance to
the host one. If both mice desynchronize quickly one of the above may be the
reason.
6. Smart 16 IP Video Modes
Smart 16 IP recognizes a limited number of common video modes. When running
X-Window on the host system, don't use any custom modelines with special video
modes. If you do, Smart 16 IP may not be able to detect these. Use any standard
VESA video mode. Refer to Appendix A on page 79 for a list of all known
modes.
You can adjust up to 4 Custom Video Modes if your video mode differs from the
standard VESA video mode.
Set the Custom Video Modes in the Video settings section.
7. Operating the Smart 16 IP system
Operate the Smart 16 IP system through one of the following interfaces:
1. HTTP/HTTPS - Any standard Web browser. Depending on the Web browser,
you can access the Smart 16 IP card using the unsecured HTTP protocol or, in
case the browser supports it, the encrypted HTTPS protocol. We recommend
using HTTPS when possible.
2. SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) - Any standard SNMP client
can use this protocol.
3. Telnet - Use a standard Telnet client to access an arbitrary device connected to
one of the Smart 16 IP's serial ports via a terminal mode.
