The Hosts button on the menu bar provides the quickest and most efficient way
to switch between host computers. This is because the button is close at hand,
but also because the screen calibration details for each host are reused when
this method of switching is used. The alternative is to use

hotkey combinations

or the AdderView CATxIP 5000

on-screen menu

To select a host

1 Click the Hosts button to

display a list of computers.

2 Click the required computer

name to view and control it.

You can use the List Order

option to determine
whether the hosts are listed
by their entry number or
alphabetically.

See

Appendix 2 - Host

configuration

for details about

programming new hosts into the
AdderView CATxIP 5000 (‘admin’
user status required).

Configure

This option is displayed only when you are logged on as the ‘admin’ user. When
selected it provides access to a wide range of AdderView CATxIP 5000 settings.
See

Appendix 2 - Configuration pages via viewer

for more details.

Mouse pointers

Both viewers provide a double mouse cursor to help overcome any delays
caused by slow connections. When you move your mouse you will see two
mouse cursors, a local one that responds immediately to your movements and a
second, slower moving, cursor that represents the current mouse position at the
host.

For the browser viewer, the local
cursor is a typical arrow:

For the VNC viewer, the local
cursor is a dot:

Local dot cursor

Remote host cursor

Additionally, for fast network
connections, the VNC viewer also
provides a single mouse mode.
