much data as your network connection and VNC client allow.
Network latency, which is the total time it takes for a packet to get to

the SVxx54DX4I and come back, has the biggest impact on perceived
performance and usability. Network bandwidth has a lesser effect,
particularly when just moving the mouse around.
Only a few bytes need to be sent when the mouse is moving (and

Using the Advanced Video Tuning Feature
The Advanced Video Tuning menu allows you to adjust the qualities of
the video in your VNC sessions, and can be accessed by clicking the
Advanced button on the Video Tuning VNC menu. While many users
will probably allow the SVxx54DX4I to automatically configure the video
properties, you can use this menu to exercise a great deal of control over
the settings if you wish.
The Presets section contains up to sixteen different settings, plus the
factory setting. If a number is highlighted, then that preset has been
programmed with valid settings and may be used. Note that the Factory
preset is always available. Simply click on the appropriate button and
the default settings will be restored. To save settings to a preset, click
on the Save->Preset button in the Actions pane. The preset buttons will

wish to save the presets after clicking the Save->Preset button, click
the Save->Preset button a second time and the save function will be
cancelled.
