The Belkin Advanced Secure Windowing KVM includes a scaling
function. The scaling function allows the user to reduce the size of the
source image without losing information, enabling him to see more of
the sources on limited screen space. Scaling is done by an advanced
scaling algorithm developed by Belkin.
Tile feature
The tile feature is accessed from System Mode by clicking on the
Tile button located on the task-bar. By pressing Tile the windows be
arranged in tile mode but will automatically be scaled by 1:2x factor.
For example, if the input source resolution is 1920x1080, the image
displayed in the source window will be 960x540. The size of the window
is, as always, determined by the output resolution (will be a quarter of
the available screen area). Tile is actually a preset of System Mode and,
once in tile mode, all System Mode functions are available.
scale a specific window
From System Mode it is possible to scale a specific window simply by
pointing on the active window, pressing the mouse side buttons and
moving the mouse wheel.
This will toggle the scaling of the active window between 1:2 times, 1:4
times and no scaling, keeping the actual window frame size fixed.
It is also possible to scale a window (both from System and User Modes
by using the CTRL | CTRL | +/- key combination where pr will
reduce the scaling (from 1:4X to 1:2X and from 1:2X to no scaling) and
the – will increase the scaling (from no scaling to 1:2X and from 1:2X
to 1:4X).

By pressing the Scale button on the System Mode task-bar, the screen

User display on the Windowing KVM in Scale mode
The active window centered (not scaled) and the other windows will
move to the right side and scaled 1:4 times.
It is still possible in this mode to use all standard System Mode functions
to switch active between windows.
Also, once in scale mode moving the mouse wheel will toggle between
windows making a different source the central display.
Using the front-panel push buttons will change the active window
without repositioning the windows.
