Color Depth

Set the desired color depth. You may select between 8 or 16 bit for Video Optimized/compression

level 0, or between 1 and 8 bit for compression level 1 to 9. The higher the color depth, the more

video information has to be captured and to be transferred.

Note: If displaying motion pictures on a connection with low speed you may achieve an

improvement regarding the video transfer rate by lowering the color depth and disabling the option

“Video Optimized”. As a general result, the data rate is reduced (less bits per color). Furthermore,

the OPMA module will not have to do any video compression. In total, this will lead to less transfer

time of the motion picture.

2-4.2 Remote Console Status Line

Status line

Shows both console and the connection state. The size of the remote screen is displayed. The image below

was taken from a Remote Console with a resolution of 800x600 pixels. The value in brackets describes the

connection to the Remote Console. “Norm” means a standard connection without encryption, “SSL” means

a secure connection.

Furthermore, both the incoming (“In:”) and the outgoing (“Out:”) network traffic are visible (in kb/s). If

compressed encoding is enabled, a value in brackets displays the compressed transfer rate.
