Keyboard language with Windows XP Professional

A German-language on-screen keyboard and an English-language on-screen keyboard are

available on the device. Set the keyboard language on the device so that it matches the

keyboard language on the server. If the keyboard languages on the device and the server

are different, the keys pressed on the device keyboard will not be interpreted correctly on the

server.

Configuring double-click

If it is too difficult to double-click the touch screen with your finger or the touch stylus, then

make the setting in Windows Explorer on the server that files and folders should open with a

single click under "Tools > Folder options > General > Click items as follows".

You have the option to establish a greater range in which two clicks can be detected as a

double-click under [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse] in the Windows registry

of the server. Under "DoubleClickHeight" and "DoubleClickWidth" enter 10 pixels, for

example.

VNC

Introduction

Use VNC for remote control of another computer via a network. VNC is the abbreviation for

"Virtual Network Computing" and shows the desktop of another computer. In contrast to RDP,

all clients display the same server screen.

Requirement

The operating system you use does not play a role because the software is available for all

current platforms. The connection via the network uses the TCP/IP protocol and should be

configured with a password for security reasons.

Layout

VNC works according to the client-server model. The program consists of the server module

VNC server and the client component VNC Viewer. The server program runs on the

computer whose screen outputs you want to monitor, whereas the clients receive the screen

outputs and in turn send keyboard and mouse inputs to the server.
