Remote Mouse and Keyboard Control
This feature allows the mouse and keyboard (of the computer running VN-GLIMPSE VIEWER) to
emulate mouse and keyboard operation on the source computer.
Remote mouse and keyboard control can be used with software agents and also with hardware
agents that are operating in TCP unicast mode. Hardware agents operating in UDP multicast mode
cannot be remotely controlled since they can have more than one viewing client connected.
A remote control ‘session’ is initiated by the viewing client. A session can be terminated automatically
after a preset period of mouse/keyboard inactivity (‘timeout’), or manually by pressing a predefined
‘hot key’ on the keyboard.
To enable/disable remote mouse and keyboard control…
From the
Tools menu choose Mouse & Keyboard.
When this option is checked, remote control is enabled.
When this option is unchecked, remote control is disabled.
To set up mouse and keyboard control options…
From the
Tools menu choose Mouse & Keyboard Options to show the following dialog:
Change the settings as required, and then click
OK to save the settings.
To specify the key (or key combination) that will
be used to terminate the session, click in this
box then press the required key(s).
This example requires the Ctrl key and F1
function key to be pressed simultaneously.
To specify the key (or key combination) that will
be used to call up the special context menu,
click in this box then press the required key(s).
This example requires the Ctrl key and F2

To enable automatic session termination check
the
Enable Timeout box. Then set the required
timeout period by typing the required value in
the
Timeout In Seconds box.
