4.4 ServLINK and Remote-Site Settings

To configure your ServLINK and remote-site settings for optimal operation, follow
the steps below. Begin by placing your ServLINK in Host Mode. From the Main
Menu bar, pull down the "Host Mode" menu and select "Switch to Host Mode."
The desktop of the currently selected PC will appear, along with a crosshair mouse
cursor. Tap the right Shift key on your keyboard three times to bring up the Host
Mode Properties dialog box.
1. In the Host Mode Properties box, choose the "Keyboard/Mouse" option. Set
your ServLINK mouse speed to "fast." This setting, along with the Host PC's
mouse speed being set to "slow," creates fairly close mouse alignment—that is,
the position of the crosshair cursor on your remote screen (the spot that the
ServLINK thinks the mouse is pointing to) will usually match the position of
the selected PC's mouse pointer (the spot that the PC thinks the mouse is
pointing to).
If you are at the local user station attached to the ServLINK and your mouse
alignment is not the greatest—if, for example, you try to click one window
button and the PC's mouse pointer lands and clicks on the neighboring
button—tap the left Shift key four times. This will align the mouse by moving
both the crosshair cursor and the PC's mouse pointer to the upper left-hand
corner of your screen.
If you are at a remote user station and your mouse alignment is poor, move
the cursor to the upper left corner and the mouse will align there within a
second or two.
2. If you are at the local user station attached to the ServLINK, check in the Host
Mode Properties dialog box to make sure that you are using the ServLINK's
default setting of 256 colors.
If you are at a remote user station, configure pcANYWHERE for 16-color
operation as described in the pcANYWHERE manual.
