The main menu window may be moved by clicking and dragging on the title bar. It can
be closed by pressing Escape, or by clicking on the red X in the top right corner. Here
is a guide outlining various fields from the Main Menu. Most of the functions operate
immediately. Other functions require a response to a confirmation prompt first before
performing the requested function.
• Identification: Fixed text label that is defined by the user in the Web interface.
This does not affect the operation of the system and is intended to assist with
administration.
• Status: Current status of the attached system and the status of the unit.
• B/W Min/Avg/Max/Auto: Bandwidth control, wherein current operation will be
indicated with white highlighting. If you choose Min/Avg/Max then you will override
the default, Auto. As the automatic mode measures actual network performance,
you may see the current mode switch from Min up to Avg or Max. The different
modes indicate more time spent on compression versus more bandwidth. There is
no visual difference between the modes, but there can be a noticeable difference in
speed and smoothness.
• Mouse Resync: Resynchronizes the mouse pointer so that the local and remote
mouse pointers are on top of each other.
• Take Control: When multiple users are connected to the same system, use this
button to take control away from another user. Only one user may control the
keyboard and mouse at any time. All users see the same picture.
• Thumbnails: Switch to smaller thumbnail size screen images (click anywhere on
thumbnail to restore it). Each button corresponds to a different sized image, from
half size to one-sixteenth.

picture adjustment does not provide a good quality picture.

generate but needed by the remote system. The most common key sequence is the

• KVM Menu: Generates the key sequence used to access the on-screen menu for an
enterprise-class KVM switch. When these conventional KVM switches are combined
with the IP KVM, this key makes accessing their built-in menu easier, especially from
the Java client. This button will only be shown when an external KVM has been
enabled via the web interface.
• Bribar: Closes or reopens the Bribar window along the bottom of the screen.
