Mouse pointers

Both viewers provide a double mouse cursor to help overcome any delays
caused by slow connections. When you move your mouse you will see two
mouse cursors, a local one that responds immediately to your movements and a
second, slower moving, cursor that represents the current mouse position at the
host.
For the browser viewer, the local
cursor is a typical arrow:
Local cursor
Remote host cursor
For the VNC viewer, the local
cursor is a dot:
Local dot cursor
Remote host cursor
Additionally, for fast network
connections, the VNC viewer also
provides a single mouse mode.
See
Controls - Single Mouse
for
details.
Single local cursor

Host selection

The Hosts button on the menu bar provides the quickest and most efficient way
to switch between host computers. This is because the button is close at hand,
but also because the screen calibration details for each host are reused when
this method of switching is used. The alternative is to use
or the SC5-4xIP
on-screen
menu.
To select a host
1 Click the Hosts button to
display a list of computers.
2 Click the required computer
name to view and control it.
You can use the List Order
option to determine
whether the hosts are listed
by their entry number or
alphabetically.
