IP Access Configuration & Operation

Options

Opens the Options menu. A short description of the each of the options follows:

Monitor Only

Toggles the ‘Monitor Only’ filter on or off. If the filter is switched on, no remote console

interaction is possible but monitoring is.

Exclusive Access

If a user has the appropriate permission, he can force the Remote Consoles of all other users to

close. No one can open the Remote Console at the same time again until this user disables the

exclusive access, or logs off.

A change in the access mode is also visible in the status line indicated by this icon.

Scaling

Allows you to scale down the Remote Console. You can still use both mouse and keyboard;

however the scaling algorithm will not preserve all display details.

Mouse Handling

The submenu for mouse handling offers two options for synchronizing the local and the remote

mouse pointer.

Fast Sync

The fast synchronization is used to correct a temporary, but fixed skew.

Intelligent Sync

Use this option if the fast sync does not work or the mouse settings have

been changed on the host system

Local Cursor

Offers a list of different cursor shapes to choose from for the local mouse pointer. The selected

shape will be saved for the current user and activated the next time this user opens the Remote

Console. The number of available shapes depends on the Java Virtual Machine; a version of

1.2 or higher offers the full list.

Video Settings

Opens a panel for changing the P16-IP video settings. The P16-IP features two different

dialogs, which influence the video settings:

Video Settings in the KVM section in the front end menu:

The Noise Filter option defines how the P16-IP reacts to small changes in the video input signal.

A large filter setting needs less network traffic and leads to a faster video display, but small

changes in some display regions may not be recognized immediately. A small filter displays all

changes instantly but may lead to a constant amount of network traffic even if display content is

not really changing (depending on the quality of the video input signal). All in all the default

setting should be suitable for most situations.

Note:

This method takes more time than fast sync and requires a correctly

adjusted picture. Use the auto adjustment function or the manual correction in

the Video Settings panel to setup the picture.
