Fig. 18 Manual Video-Adjust Bar

Auto Video Adjust

To adjust the video automatically:
1. 

Open Internet Explorer (or similar) in the background.

2. 

In the quick-access toolbar, click 

3. 

Select “Auto video adjust”. 

The process will take a few seconds. If the process runs for more than three 
seconds, there may be an abnormal noise level. Check the video cable and verify 
that no dynamic-video application is running on the target server’s desktop. 

Perform this procedure where necessary for each target server or new 
screen resolution.
