Chapter 7: Using the KVM Client
66
To temporarily exit the single mouse mode and then return to
this mode:
1. Press Ctrl+Alt+M on your keyboard. A message appears, indicating
that the single mouse mode is temporarily suspended.
Now you can use the mouse to control the User Station.
2. To return to the single mouse mode, click anywhere on the target
server's image in the KVM Client.

Dual Mouse Modes

In the dual mouse modes, two cursors appear onscreen. They are:
• The mouse cursor of the User Station.
The mouse cursor of the target server connected to the KVM port you
•
are accessing.
Two mouse cursors align if properly configured.
While in motion, the User Station's mouse pointer slightly leads the
target server's mouse pointer.
Absolute Mouse Mode
In this mode, absolute coordinates are used to keep the User Station's
and target server's cursors in synch, even when the target server's
mouse is set to a different acceleration or speed.
This mode is supported on target servers with USB ports and is the
default mode for virtual media CIMs.
Use of virtual media CIMs on target servers is required for this mouse
mode. See Virtual Media CIMs.
Most modern operating systems on the target servers shall support the
Absolute mouse mode.
Note: Some Linux, UNIX, Solaris or very "unusual" operating systems as
well as some USB profiles may not support the Absolute mouse mode. In
this case, use other mouse modes. For detailed information of each USB
profile, see the section titled "Available USB Profiles" in the KX III KVM
switch's user documentation, which is accessible from the KVM switch
application or the Raritan website's
