Remote graphic console settings
To change the mouse, keyboard, and logging settings, select Preferences.
•
The Mouse tab enables you to set the Mouse mode. To display the Mouse Mode list, select
Mouse, which has the following options:
◦ Hide Mode (Relative) causes the LO100 remote graphic console to change to Relative
mode.
Relative mouse mode hides the local mouse cursor. Use Hide Mode Relative if you are
running a DOS-based program and the mouse is not tracking correctly.
When using Hide Mode, the local mouse is inaccessible. To access the local mouse
(normal mode), press Ctrl+Alt+0.
◦ Absolute Mode causes the LO100 remote graphic console to send raw x and y coordinates
to the server.
◦ Relative Mode sends the LO100 remote graphic console relative mouse position
coordinates (+/- previous mouse pointer position) to the server. This mode is the default
for Linux and Windows.
•
The Keyboard tab enables you to set the language of the virtual keyboard and the connection
type. English is the default language. You can change the language of the virtual keyboard
by selecting one of the 12 languages.
The remote side server and local side server (the LO100 remote graphic console) must use
the same language for the virtual keyboard to function properly.
LO100 supports the following connection types:
◦ VNC (port 5900) supports Virtual KVM and LO100 Virtual Media. Port 5900 is the
default setting.
◦ Unsecured keyboard (port 5902) supports the keyboard. Port 5902 supports video,
mouse, and LO100 Virtual Media.
◦ Secure keyboard (port 5904) encrypts all keyboard data sent through this port. Port 5904
is a unsecured port that supports video, mouse, and LO100 Virtual Media.
•
The Logging tab enables you to view log messages in a Java console. The Logging tab also
provides a timeout variable to inform you of how long you can stay in KVM.
Global Logging is disabled by default. If you enable this option, you can view log messages
in a Java console.
Do not run the console longer than 2 hours. The console uses all available memory and might
cause the LO100 remote graphic console and the user web browser to crash. Periodically
clear the event log to prevent a slow connection or possible crash.
To record all log messages to the console from the Logging list, select Console. To check log
messages in the Java console window, from the list on the Tools menu of Internet Explorer
menu bar, select Sun Java Console.
To record all log messages to a file, select Log File from the Logging list, enabling the Console
Log File textbox. To select a file in which log messages will be stored, click the Browse button,
or enter the fully qualified file name of the selected file in the textbox. To send log messages
to both a file of your choice and to the Java console, select Console and Log File.
