Using RGS

Powering on the client

To power on the client, press the power button on the blade front panel. The computer cycles through a

startup sequence in less than a minute and then displays either an Enterprise Directory authentication window

or the remote display control panel. If a Webmin administration screen appears, your client has not been
properly configured. Contact your administrator for assistance.

Changing the behavior of RGS

You might have to change the behavior of RGS. This is done using the RGS Receiver Control Panel, the

Remote Display Window Toolbar, or the Virtual KVM. The Receiver Control Panel enables you to change all
connections between a client and one or more blades. The Remote Display Window Toolbar controls only a

single connection. The Virtual KVM allows switching between connections in situations where you have more

display area on your blades than you have monitors on the client. For more information about configuring

RGS, see the HP Remote Graphics User's Guide.
The RGS Receiver must be in Setup Mode (where keyboard and mouse input are directed to the RGS

Receiver) to access the RGS controls. When the RGS Receiver is in Setup Mode, the display fades to gray as

a visual queue. Setup Mode is activated by entering certain key sequences while the RGS Receiver window

is selected. By default, the key sequence to enter Setup Mode is press Shift, press Space, and release Space
(or, more simply, hold down the Shift key, then press and release the Space bar). When in Setup Mode (while

still holding the Shift key), you can:

Press the M key (Setup Mode + M) to display the Receiver Control Panel.

Press the H key (Setup Mode + H) to display the Remote Display Window Toolbar.

Press the Tab key to access the Virtual KVM.
