Disabling Mouse Acceleration on the Host Computer
NOTE: If you are using USB to connect SV1115IPEXT to the host computer, you will not
be required to adjust the mouse settings on the host computer, as this device uses
“Absolute” mode, which eliminates any problems you may otherwise experience with
mouse synchronization or host mouse acceleration.
Many operating systems offer a feature called mouse acceleration, allowing the
user to adjust the responsiveness of the cursor on the screen in relation to physical
movements of the mouse. While this is usually a beneficial interface enhancement, it
can interfere with the operation of the SV1115IPEXT and should be disabled on the
host computer before a remote session is attempted. Follow the instructions below to
disable mouse acceleration for the operating system installed on the host computer.
