Controlling Sender Settings:

Controlling Settings on Microsoft Windows

Sender GUI

The Sender for Windows registers an HP Remote Graphics Software icon

in the

application tray. On Windows the icon animates when Receivers are connected to the
Sender. By right clicking on the icon, the user can display the Sender GUI

and select one of the following options:

"Remote Keyboard/Mouse --> Enable or Disable" - If "Disable" is selected,
all

non-primary

users are in "view-only" mode. Only the primary user, the

user that is logged into the desktop, will control the remote desktop remotely
using the Receiver. If "Enable" is selected, all users connected to the Sender
can interact with the remote desktop. All keyboard and mouse activity will be
injected into the Sender allowing non-primary users control of the remote
desktop.

"Disconnect --> Non-Primary Users or All Users" – disconnects receiver
sessions for either non-primary users or all users.

"Help" displays the Remote Graphics Help system.

"About" displays Remote Graphics program information.

Manually Starting & Stopping the Sender

By default the Sender installs as a Windows Service and configures to automatically
start on system startup. The user can control Windows Services by accessing the
"Services" panel. The "Services" panel can be accessed from the Windows "Control
Panel" and selecting "Administrative Tools".

The following diagram shows the Administrative Tool for Services. The Remote
Graphics Sender is highlighted. The status of the service is "started" and the service
is configured to startup automatically. By right clicking on the Sender, the service
can be stopped, started, or resumed. Additionally, the properties of the service can
be controlled such as the start-up type, and the recovery mode.
