the mouse doesn’t move correctly, there are two ways for re-synchronizing local and remote mouse:
Fast Sync
The fast synchronization is used to correct a temporary, but fixed skew. Choose
the option using the Remote Console options menu (see Table
5.2
on page
23
) or
press the mouse synchronization hotkey sequence in case you defined one (refer
to Section
5.3.5
).
Intelligent Sync If the fast sync doesn’t work or the mouse settings have been changed on the
host system, use the intelligent resynchronization. This method takes slightly
more time than the fast one and can be accessed with the appropriate item in the
Remote Console option menu or the ’Sync mouse’ button on top of the Remote
Console. The intelligent synchronization requires, a correctly adjusted picture.
Use the auto adjustment function or the manual correction in the OSD menu
(refer to Section
5.3.3
on page
26
) to setup the picture.
Emergency (direct) mouse mode
If all synchronization options fail (due to on of the reasons
below) it is still possible to work with the remote mouse by selecting the emergency mode using
the keyboard/mouse & video settings panel (see Section
5.4.3
on page
35
). If activated, all mouse
movements are transmitted directly to the host, so you can adjust the host mouse settings to less
extreme values or even work in this mode if mouse acceleration is turned off. In this mode all
synchronization options perform a fast sync.
Limitations of the mouse synchronization
While the intelligent algorithm works fine for common
cases, there are some special limitations which may prevent the synchronization from working
properly:
Special Mouse Driver
There are mouse drivers, which influence the synchronization process
leading to desynchronized mouse pointers. If this happens, make sure
you don’t use a special vendor-specific mouse driver on your host
system
Windows XP Mouse Setting Windows XP knows a setting to ’improve mouse acceleration’, which
has to be deactivated
Badly adjusted picture
To have the intelligent sync working, a correctly adjusted picture is
necessary. Use the auto adjustment function or the manual correction
in the OSD menu (refer to Section
5.3.3
on page
26
) to setup the
picture. The video also has to be of sufficiently good quality.
5.3.5.
Remote Console Settings
The Remote Console settings allow you to customize the Remote Console window prior to its start
(see Figure
5.12
on page
32
). Some of the parameters you might still change while the Remote
Console is running while others have to be set in the Remote Console settings.
All the settings for the Remote Console window are user specific. That means, each user can
individually customize the Remote Console for his needs. Changing the settings for one user does
not affect the settings for others.
