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. Select the desired user from the selection box and press
the button “Update”. This will result in displaying the according user settings below.

Note: You are allowed to change the settings of other users only if you have the necessary
access rights for this task. For a regular user without the correct permissions it is not
possible to change the settings for any other users.

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 depending on the number of users working
at the same time and the bandwidth of the connection line (Modem, ISDN, DSL,
LAN, etc.).

Automatic detection

The encoding and the compression level is determined automatically from the
available bandwidth and the current content of the video image.

Pre-configured

The pre-configured settings deliver the best result because of optimized adjust-
ment of compression and color depth for the indicated network speed.

Manually

Allows to adjust both compression rate and the color depth individually. De-
pending on the selected compression rate the data stream between the B050-000
and the Remote Console will be compressed in order to save bandwidth. Since
high compression rates are very time consuming, they should not be used while
several users are accessing the B050-000 simultaneously.

The standard color depth is 16 Bit (65536 colors). The other color depths are in-
tended for slower network connections in order to allow a faster transmission
of data. Therefore compression level 0 (no compression) uses only 16 Bit color
depth. At lower bandwidths only 4 Bit (16 colors) and 2 Bit (4 gray scales) are
recommended for typical desktop interfaces. Photo-like pictures have best re-
sults with 4 Bit (16 gray scales). 1 Bit color depth (black/white) should only be
used for extremely slow network connections.
