Icon

Purpose

Default Hotkey

Exit remote and location

F2, F3, F4

Adjust Video

Brings up the video adjustment utility.

F5, F6, F7

Toggle OSD

Toggles the OSD display off and on.

F9, F10, F11

Toggle mouse display

If you find the display of the two mouse pointers (local and remote) to be confusing or annoying, you can use this
function to shrink the non-functioning pointer down to a barely-noticeable tiny circle - which can be ignored. Since
this function is a toggle - use the hotkeys again to bring the mouse display back to its original configuration.

F11, F10, F9

Adjust mouse

This utility synchronizes the local and remote mouse movements following a video resolution change. After
invoking this utility, simply click the local mouse pointer on top of the remote mouse pointer.

F8, F7, F6

Video Auto-sync

This combination performs an auto-sync operation. It is the same as clicking the Auto-sync button in the Video
Options dialog box (see section 9.3.2, Video Adjustment).

F10, F11

Show/Hide Local Cursor

Use this function to toggle the local cursor on/off. Unlike Toggle Mouse Display, this function removes the local
mouse pointer altogether.

F6, F7

Substitute Alt key

Although all other keyboard input is captured and sent to the B020-008-17-IP, [Alt + Tab] and [Ctrl + Alt + Del] work
on your local computer. In order to implement their effects on the remote system, another key may be substituted for
the Alt key. If you substitute the F12 key, for example, you would use [F12 + Tab] and [Ctrl + F12 + Del].

F12

Substitute Ctrl key

If your local computer captures Ctrl key combinations, preventing them from being sent to the remote system,
you can implement their effects on the remote system by specifying a function key to substitute for the Ctrl key.
If you substitute the F11 key, for example, pressing [F11 + 5] would appear to the remote system as [Ctrl + 5].

F6, F7

Substitute Ctrl key

If your local computer captures Ctrl key combinations, preventing them from being sent to the remote system,
you can implement their effects on the remote system by specifying a function key to substitute for the Ctrl key.
If you substitute the F11 key, for example, pressing [F11 + 5] would appear to the remote system as [Ctrl + 5].

9.3.1 Hotkey Setup

Various configuration actions related to the keyboard, video, and mouse
can be performed via Hotkey combinations. The Hotkey setup utility is
accessed by clicking the Keyboard icon on the Control Panel. The actions
performed by the Hotkeys are listed in the left column; the currently
defined keys that invoke the actions are shown in the panel to the right.

If you find the default Hotkey combinations inconvenient, you can
reconfigure them by following these five steps:

Highlight the Action, and then Click

1.

Start.

Key in the Function keys (one at a time). The key names appear in the

2.

When you have finished keying in your sequence, Click

3.

Stop.

Click

4.

Set

. Repeat for any other actions for which you wish to re-assign

Hotkeys.

Click

5.

Close.

Note: You can use the same function keys for more than one action, as long as the first key is

not the same. For example, you can use F1 F2 F3 for one action; F2 F1 F3 for another;
F3 F2 F1 for a third, etc.

An explanation of the Hotkey Setup Actions is given in the table below:
