Note: Your local keyboard changes its keyboard layout according to the remote host system. If
you use a German administration system and your host system uses a US English keyboard
layout for instance, some special keys on the German keyboard will not work as expected.
Instead, the keys will result in their US English counterpart. You can circumvent such problems
by adjusting the keyboard of your remote system to the same mapping as your local one.

The Remote Console window always tries to show the remote screen with its optimal size. That
means it will adapt its size to the size of the remote screen initially and after the screen
resolution of the remote screen has been changed. However, you can always resize the
Remote Console window in your local window system as usual.

4.3.2 Remote Console Control Bar


The upper part of the Remote Console window contains a control bar. Using its elements you
can see the state of the Remote Console and influence the local Remote Console settings. A
description for each control follows.


Ctrl+Alt+Delete

Sends the ‘Control Alt Delete’ key combination to the remote system



Auto Adjust button

If the video display is poor quality or distorted in some way, click this button and wait a few
seconds while the IP ACCESS SWITCH LITE tries to adjust itself for the best possible video
quality.



Sync mouse

Activates the mouse synchronization process. Choose this option in order to synchronize the
local AND remote mouse cursors. 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.



Single/Double mouse mode

Switches between the Single Mouse Mode (where only the remote mouse pointer is visible) and
the Double Mouse Mode (where remote and local mouse pointers are visible) Single mouse
mode is only available if using SUN JVM 1.3 or higher.

Tip: When in single mouse mode use the hotkey combination [ALT] + [F12] to release
mouse control and access the menus etc.
