Mouse Settings

The KX II operates in Absolute Mouse Mode
Mode and Standard Mouse Mode.
Mouse parameters do not have to be altered for Absolute Mouse
Synchronization but a D2CIM-VUSB or D2CIM-DVUSB is required. For
both the Standard and Intelligent Mouse Modes, mouse parameters must
be set to specific values. Mouse configurations vary on different target
operating systems. Consult your operating system documentation for
additional details.
Intelligent Mouse Mode works well on most Windows platforms but may
produce unpredictable results when Active Desktop is set on the target.
Do not use an animated mouse for Intelligent Mouse Mode. For
additional information on Intelligent mouse mode settings, see
Intelligent Mouse Mode
Servers with internal KVM switches inside the blade chassis typically do
not support absolute mouse technology.
