It is recommended that the default password be changed immediately to prevent unauthorized
access to the device.
1.6 Remote Console
The Remote Console is the redirected screen, keyboard and mouse of the remote host system to
which the freeView IP 800 is connected. The web browser which is used to access the unit has to
have Java Runtime Environment version 1.1 or higher installed. However, it is strongly
recommended that the Sun JVM 1.4 is installed. The Remote Console will behave exactly the
same way as if you were sitting directly in front of the screen of your remote system. That means
that both the keyboard and mouse can be used in the usual way. Open the console by selecting
the preview picture on the main site of the HTML front end. Figure 1-2 shows the top of the
Remote Console.

Once connected, the following can be performed to improve the user experience:
Auto Adjust button
If the video displayed is distorted, click this button and the device will automatically adjust its
display to improve the quality.
Sync Mouse button
Choose this option in order to synchronize the local with the remote mouse cursor. This is
especially necessary when using accelerated mouse settings on the host system. In general
there is no need to change mouse settings on the host.
Video Settings in Options Menu
This opens a new window with elements to control the PS/2 IP-KVM switch Video Settings. You
can change some values, for instance the brightness and contrast of the picture displayed, which
may improve the video quality. It is also possible to revert to the default settings for all video
modes or only the current one.
Note: After starting up, if the local mouse pointer is not synchronized with the remote mouse
pointer, press the Auto Adjust Button once.
