4.12.1 General

The Keyboard Pass Through mode setting enables or disables keyboard pass through.
Keystrokes that a user enters may be interpreted in two ways, depending on the screen mode of the
KVM Video Viewer window.
• If a KVM Video Viewer window is in Full Screen mode, keystrokes and keyboard combinations
are sent to the remote server being viewed.
• If a KVM Video Viewer window is in regular Desktop mode, Keyboard Pass Through mode allows
you to control whether the remote server or local computer will recognize certain keystrokes or
keystroke combinations.
When Keyboard Pass Through mode is enabled, keystrokes and keystroke combinations are sent to the
remote server being viewed when the KVM Video Viewer window is active.
To enable Keyboard Pass Through mode:
1. Select Tools - Session Options.
2. Click the General tab.
3. Check the box next to Pass-through all keystrokes to target.
4. Click OK.
To enter Single Cursor mode:

the target device.
To exit Single Cursor mode:
Press they specified key to exit Single Cursor mode. You can specify which key is used under Tools -
Session Options.

4.12.2 Mouse Synchronization

Enabling Mouse Synchronization in the KVM session profile provides improved mouse tracking on the
target device. If Mouse Synchronization is enabled, it is not necessary to disable mouse acceleration on
the target device.
The Video Viewer window offers five appearance choices for the local mouse cursor. You can also choose
no cursor or the default cursor.
