Changing Cursor Settings
When using the DSR, your mouse pointer will change shape when over a Host
server window. You can change the appearance of this second pointer from
within the DSView software.
To change the mouse pointer appearance:
1. From the Node Manager, select Tools - Settings - Cursor.
2. The Program Settings window will appear.
3. You may select an alternate cursor from the pull-down menu under the
Cursor heading.
4. To see what the alternate cursor will look like, move your mouse pointer
over the area labeled Preview Area.
5. When you have selected a new cursor, click on the OK box at the bottom
of the window.
Adjusting Video Parameters
In most cases, you will not need to alter the DSR Video Settings from the
default. The system will automatically adjust and use the optimal video param-
eters. The DSR performs best when the video
parameters are set such that no (zero) video
packets are transmitted for a static screen.
The easiest way to adjust your video parameters
is to click on the Auto Adjust Video button.
Clicking this button will instruct the DSR to
optimize the video to ideal settings.
