3.5 KVM Settings
3.5.1 User Console
The following settings are user specific. That means, the super user can customize these
settings for every user separately. Changing the settings for one user does not affect the
settings for the other users.
User Console Settings
• Remote Console Settings for User: This selection box displays the user ID for which the
values are shown and for which the changes will take effect. You may change the settings of
other users if you have the required privileges.
• Transmission Encoding: The Transmission Encoding setting allows changing the image-
encoding algorithm that is used to transmit the video data to the Remote Console window. It
is possible to optimize the speed of the remote screen processing depending on the number
of users working at the same time and the network bandwidth of the connection line
(Modem, ISDN, DSL, LAN, etc.).
o Automatic detection: The encoding and the compression level is determined
automatically from the available bandwidth and the current content of the video image.
o Pre-configured: The pre-configured settings deliver the best result because of
optimized adjustment of compression and color depth for the indicated network speed.
o Manually: Allows to adjustment of both compression rate and the color depth
individually. Depending on the selected compression rate the data stream between the
IP console and the Remote Console will be compressed in order to save bandwidth.
Since high compression rates consume more computing power of IP console, they
should not be used while several users are accessing the IP console simultaneously.
