To close the window and accept the changes, press the OK button, otherwise press the Cancel
button.
3.3.3 IP Auto Configuration
With this option, you can specify whether the IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC should
obtain its network settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. From the drop down list select either
DHCP or BOOTP. If you select NONE, the IP auto configuration is disabled and you should
manually input the following network settings:
IP address
The IP address the IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC uses.
Net mask
The net mask of the connected IP subnet.
Gateway address
The IP address of the default router for the connected IP subnet. If you do not have a default
router, enter 0.0.0.0.

3.4 Keyboard, Mouse and Video configuration
Between the IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC and the host, there are two interfaces
available for transmitting keyboard and mouse data: USB and PS/2. The correct operation of
the remote mouse depends on several settings which will be discussed in the following
subsections.
3.4.1 IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC Keyboard Settings
The IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC settings for the host' s keyboard type have to be
correct in order to make the remote keyboard work properly. The settings can be checked using
the IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC front-end.
3.4.2 Remote Mouse Settings
A common problem with KVM devices is the synchronization between the local and remote
mouse cursors. The IP ACCESS KVM SWITCH CLASSIC addresses this problem with an
intelligent synchronization algorithm. There are two mouse modes available on the IP ACCESS
KVM SWITCH CLASSIC: Auto mouse speed and Fixed mouse speed.
Auto mouse speed
The automatic mouse speed mode tries to detect the speed and acceleration settings of the
host system automatically. Speed detection is performed during mouse synchronization. If the
mouse does not move correctly, there are two ways to re-synchronize the local and remote
mouse:
Fast Sync: Fast synchronization is used to correct a temporary, but fixed skew. Choose this
option using the Remote Console options menu or by pressing the mouse synchronization
hotkey sequence - [ALT] + [F12]
Intelligent Sync: If the fast sync does not work correctly or the mouse settings have been
changed on the host system, you can use the intelligent resynchronization option. This method
can be accessed from the Mouse Handling sub menu of the Remote Console Option menu.
Intelligent synchronization requires a correctly adjusted picture. Use the auto adjustment
function or manual correction in the Video Settings panel to setup the picture. The Sync mouse
button on top of the Remote Console can behave differently, depending on the current
state of mouse synchronization. Usually pressing this button leads to a fast sync, except in
situations where the KVM port or the video mode was recently changed.
Tip: When first started, if the local mouse pointer is not synchronized with the remote mouse
pointer, click the Auto Adjust Button once. If the mouse is still not synchronized select
Intelligent Sync from the Mouse Handling sub menu of the Remote Console Option menu.
Fixed mouse speed
This mode just translates the mouse movements from the Remote Console in a way that one
pixel move will lead to 'n' pixel moves on the remote system. This parameter 'n' is adjustable.
However, it should be noted that this works only when mouse acceleration is turned off on the
remote system.
