The Remote Console
The Remote Console is the redirected screen, keyboard and mouse of the remote host system to
which MCIP is attached. The Web browser which is used for accessing MCIP has to supply a
Java Runtime Environment version 1.1 or higher. The Remote Console will behave exactly the
same way as if you were sitting directly in front of the screen of your remote system. That means
keyboard and mouse can be used in the usual way. Open the console by choosing the appropriate
link in the navigation frame of the HTML front end.
There are some options to choose from, the important ones are the following:
Auto Adjust Button
If the video displayed is of bad quality or distorted in some way, press this button and wait a few
seconds while MCIP tries to adjust itself for the best possible video quality.
Sync Mouse
Choose this option in order to synchronize the local with the remote mouse cursor. This is
especially necessary when using accelerated mouse settings on the host system. In general there is
no need to change mouse settings on the host.
Video Settings in Options Menu
This opens a new window with elements to control the MCIP Video Settings. You can change
some values, for instance, related to brightness and contrast of the picture displayed, which may
improve the video quality.
