Mouse Problems

Problem

Resolution

Mouse and/or Keyboard not
responding.

Check that your KVM Adapter Cable’s firmware version
is the same as the version stored in the switch’s Main
firmware. See

Upgrade Adapters

, page 200 for details

Unplug the cable(s) from the console port(s), then plug it/
them back in.

Mouse movement
extremely slow

There is too much data being transferred for your
connection to keep up with. Lower the video quality (see

Video Settings

, page 75) so that less video data is

transmitted.

There are two mouse
pointers after the remote
server is accessed.

You can select another pointer type. See

Mouse Pointer

Type

, page 88 for details

When the mouse pointer is
in Single Pointer mode, I
can’t access the Control
Panel.

Recall the Control Panel and immediately change the
pointer to Dual mode.

Why is there a Dual Pointer
mode?

When you are not in Mouse DynaSync Mode, you need
the two pointers so that you know the remote server
pointer is actually at the location you think it is at.
Otherwise, you might perform a mouse operation and
because of net lag the remote server pointer may not be
at the location that your client computer pointer is at.

Mouse pointer confusion

If you find the display of two mouse pointers (local and
remote) to be confusing or annoying, you can use the

Toggle Mouse Display

function to shrink the non-

functioning pointer. See

Toggle mouse display

, page 67,

and

Mouse Pointer Type

, page 88.

When I log in with my
Windows system, the local
and remote mouse pointers
do not sync.

1. Check the status of the

Mouse Sync Mode

setting

(see

Mouse DynaSync Mode

, page 90). If it is set to

Automatic

, change the setting to

Manual

and refer to

the information for

Manual Mouse Synchronization

on

page 91.

2. If you are in Manual mode, use the

AutoSync

feature

(see

Video Settings

, page 75), to sync the local and

remote monitors.

3. If that doesn't resolve the problem, use the

Adjust

Mouse

feature (see

Adjust mouse

, page 67) to bring

the pointers back in step.

4. If the above fails to resolve the problem, refer to

Additional Mouse Synchronization Procedures

,

page 271, for further steps to take.
