NOTE:
The best results for mouse synchronization
are obtained when both machines run on
optimal operating systems.
For instance, good results can be obtained when both systems
run versions of Windows that are either Windows 2000 or later. Mac OS X devices also deliver
good results. Check the information below for OS-specific settings and limitations.
For obtaining the best mouse sync results on Windows systems
, first go to your
DKVM-IP1’s web GUI and go to
KVM Settings > Keyboard/Mouse
.
In
KVM Settings > Keyboard/Mouse,
select
Auto
for your Mouse Speed. Click
Apply
to save your changes.
Windows 2000 (on Host computer):
On the Host computer, you will need to go to
Control Panel > Mouse > Motion > Acceleration
and make sure “Improve Mouse
Acceleration” is disabled.
Windows XP/Vista/7
(on Host computer)
: On the Host computer, you will need to go to
Control Panel > Mouse > Pointer Options
and make sure “Enhance Pointer Precision” is
disabled.
On the Remote computer, go to the web GUI screen and open the Host Console window.
Click the “Auto Adjust Video” button (
) at the top right of the Host Console window.
For best results, click the button with the white mouse pointer icon at the top right of the
Host Console window until it displays two pointers side by side (
Double Mouse Mode
).
This mode works well for most operating systems.
Click on the Host Console window to activate the second pointer.
The Remote mouse pointer will move faster than the darker Host pointer. However, the
Host pointer should quickly catch up with the Remote pointer once it stops.
The Host
pointer should sync perfectly with the Remote pointer a few moments after the
Remote pointer comes to a stop.
If the Host pointer does not sync perfectly after a second or two, click the “Sync” icon at
the top right of the Host window.
Click on the Host Console window again and test the pointers to see if they sync when
the Remote pointer comes to a stop.
