Mouse alignment and synchronization
Because the MergePoint Unity switch OBWI cannot get constant feedback from the mouse,
there are times when the mouse on the MergePoint Unity switch may lose sync with the mouse
on the host system. If your mouse or keyboard no longer responds properly, you can align the
mouse to reestablish proper tracking.
Alignment causes the local cursor to align with the remote target device’s cursor. Resetting
causes a simulation of a mouse and keyboard reconnect as if you had disconnected and
reconnected them.
To realign the mouse, click the Align Local Cursor button in the Video Viewer window
toolbar.
Avocent Mouse Sync
Enabling Avocent Mouse Sync in the KVM session profile provides improved mouse tracking
on the target device. If Avocent Mouse Sync is enabled, it is not necessary to disable mouse
acceleration on the target device.
NOTE: You may only use Avocent Mouse Sync when you are using a DSAVIQ-USB2, DSRIQ-VMC or MPUIQ-
VMC module and the target device is running on a Windows or Macintosh operating system.
To set Avocent Mouse Sync from the Video Viewer:
1. Select Tools - Session Options from the Video Viewer menu or click the Session Options
button. The Session Options dialog box appears.
2. Click the Mouse tab.
3. In the Avocent Mouse Sync section, the current status is shown. Select the Enable
Synchronization checkbox to enable Avocent Mouse Sync.
-or-
Deselect the
Enable Synchronization checkbox to disable Avocent Mouse Sync.
