Miscellaneous Video Settings
• Noise filter
This option defines how the DKVM-IP1 switch reacts to small changes in the video
input signal. A large filter setting needs less network traffic and leads to a faster video
display, but small changes in some display regions may not be recognized immediately.
A small filter displays all changes instantly but may lead to a constant amount of
network traffic even if the display content is not really changing (depending on the
quality of the video input signal). All in all the default setting should be suitable for most
situations.
• Force Composite Sync (Required for Sun Computers)
When connecting the device directly to rather old Sun computer (with composite sync
as the video output, it may be possible that DKVM-IP1 don’t recognize the composite
sync automatically. To support signal transmission from a Sun machine, enable this
option. If not enabled the picture of the remote console will not be visible.
To set the options, click on the button “Apply”
