Recommanded as “enable” for keyboard timeout when host is UNIX or UNIX-like OS.
Mouse Speed
Auto mouse speed
Use this option if the mouse settings on host use an additional acceleration setting. The
IP-KVM tries to detect the acceleration and speed of the mouse during the mouse sync
process.
Fixed mouse speed
Use a direct translation of mouse movements between the local and the remote pointer.
You may also set a fixed scaling which determines the pixel-amount of the remote
mouse pointer movement when the local mouse pointer is moved by one pixel. This
option is used to manually control the remote mouse speed and only works when the
mouse settings on the host are linear. This means mouse acceleration of OS should be
disabled, and the intelligent mouse synchronization of IP-KVM is not functioning under
this setting.
Absolute mouse scaling for MAC server
Use this option for MAC server.To set the options, click on the button Apply.

Miscellaneous Video Settings
Noise filter
This option defines how the IP-KVM reacts to small changes in the video input signal.
Turning on the noise filter can help reduce video flickering that is often caused by
distortions, as well as lowering unnecessary bandwidth consumption. A large filter
setting needs less network traffic and leads to a faster video display, but small changes
in some display regions may not be recognized immediately. A small filter displays all
changes instantly but may lead to a constant amount of network traffic even if the
display content is not really changing (depending on the quality of the video input signal).
All in all the default setting should be suitable for most situations.
Force Composite Sync (Required for Sun Computers)
When connecting the device directly to legacy Sun computer (with composite sync as
the video output, it may be possible that IP-KVM don’t recognize the composite sync
automatically. To support signal transmission from a Sun machine, enable this option.
If not enabled the picture of the remote console will not be visible.
