• Soft Keyboard
Opens up the Menu for the Soft-Keyboard.
Show--Pops up the Soft-Keyboard. The Soft-Keyboard is necessary in case your host system runs a
completely different language and country mapping than your administration machine.
Mapping--Used for choosing the according language and country mapping of the Soft-Keyboard.
• Local Keyboard
Used to change the language mapping of your browser machine running the Remote Console Applet.
Normally, the applet determines the correct value automatically. However, depending on your particular
JVM and your browser settings this is not always possible. A typical example is a German localized
system that uses an US-English keyboard mapping. In this case you have to change the Local
Keyboard setting to the right language, manually.
• Hotkeys
Opens a list of hotkeys defined previously. Choose one entry, the command will be sent to the host
system.
A confirmation dialog can be added that will be displayed before sending the selected command to the
remote host. Select “OK” to perform the command on the remote host.
5.2.5 Remote Console Status Line
The Remote Console Status Bar shows both console and the connection state. The size of the remote
screen is displayed. The value in brackets describes the connection to the Remote Console. “Norm” means a
standard connection without encryption, “SSL” indicates a secure connection.
Furthermore, both the incoming (“In:”) and the outgoing (“Out:”) network traffic are visible (in B/s). If
compressed encoding is enabled, a value in brackets displays the compressed transfer rate.
