Mouse alignment and synchronization

Because the DSR switch on-board web interface cannot get constant feedback from the mouse,
there are times when the mouse on the DSR switch may lose sync with the mouse on the host
system. If your mouse or keyboard no longer responds properly, you can align the mouse to
re-establish proper tracking.
Alignment causes the local cursor to align with the remote server's cursor. Resetting causes a
simulation of a mouse and keyboard reconnect as if you had disconnected and reconnected them.
To realign the mouse:
Click the Align Local Cursor button in the Video Viewer window toolbar.

Using Keyboard Pass-through

depending on the Screen mode of the Video Viewer window.
• If a Video Viewer window is in Full Screen mode, all keystrokes and keyboard combinations
except Ctrl-Alt-Del are sent to the remote server being viewed.
