SV1110IPEXT Instruction Guide

PS/2 Reset:

 Resets the PS/2 emulation going to the host and to the attached PS/2

devices. This can be used if the mouse stops responding or the PS/2 keyboard isn't
working.

 

USB Replug:

 Simulates unplugging the USB connector and then plugging it back in.

If the host is not recognizing USB input devices, this button may be used to restore
functionality.

 

Take Control:

 When multiple users are connected to the same system, use this

button to take control away from another user. Only one user may control the
keyboard and mouse at any time. All users see the same picture.

 

Thumbnails:

 Switch to smaller thumbnail size screen images (click anywhere on

thumbnail to restore it). Each button corresponds to a different sized image, from half
size to one-sixteenth.

 

Logout:

 End the VNC login session and disconnect.

 

Video Tuning:

 Sub-menu with video adjustments, to be used when automatic picture

adjustment does not provide a good quality picture (see section below).

 

VirtKeys:

 Virtual keyboard provides a menu with special keys that are often hard to

generate but needed by the remote system. The most common key sequence is the

[Ctrl]

 – 

[Alt]

 – 

[Del]

 (see section below).

 

Disk Ctrl:

 Emulated USB disk control submenu. Shows status of floppy/Ramdisk or

CD-ROM and permits easy “insertion” or “eject”.  (See section below.)

 

KVM Menu:

 Generates the key sequence used to access the on-screen menu for a

enterprise-class KVM switch. When these conventional KVM switches are combined
with the SV1110IPEXT, this key makes accessing their built-in menu easier,
especially from the Java client.  This button will only be shown when an external
KVM has been enabled via the web interface.

 

Bribar:

 Closes or reopens the Bribar window along the bottom of the screen.

This is a snapshot of the Virtual Keys window:

Clicking any button in the top half of the window simulates pressing and releasing the
indicated key. In the bottom area of the screen, clicking will simulate the indicated Meta
key being pressed. You may then click in the top part to send another key and release the
