6.4.3 Mouse Sync Mode
Synchronization of the local and remote mouse pointers is accomplished either automatically or manually.
6.4.3.1 Automatic Mouse Synchronization
This provides automatic locked-in syncing of the remote and local mouse pointers – eliminating the need to constantly resync
the two movements.
6.4.3.2 Manual Mouse Synchronization
If the local mouse pointer goes out of sync with the remote system's mouse pointer there are a number of methods to bring
them back into sync:
1. Perform an Auto Sync with the Video Adjustment function (see section 6.2 Video Settings for details).
2. Invoke the Adjust Mouse function with the Adjust Mouse hotkeys (see section 6.3.1 Hotkeys for details).
3. Set the mouse speed and acceleration for each problematic server attached to the switch. See the user manual of the
corresponding KVM over IP switch for instructions.
6.4.3.3 Mac and Linux Considerations
• For Mac OS versions 10.4.11 and higher, there is a second Sync setting to choose from. If the default Mouse Sync result is
not satisfactory, try the "Mac 2" setting. To select Mac 2, click the Further Configuration icon, hover your mouse over Mouse
Sync Mode → Automatic for Mac 2.
• Linux does not support Sync Mode, but there is a setting on the Mouse Sync Mode menu for Redhat AS3.0 systems. If
you are using a USB Adapter Cable with an AS3.0 system and the default mouse synchronization is not satisfactory, try the
Redhat AS3.0 setting. In either case, you must perform the manual mouse synchronization procedures described above.
