Operating Mode - ATEN KN1108VA User Manual

Operating Mode

The Operating Mode page is used to set working parameters, as described
below:
If Force all to grayscale is enabled, the remote displays of all devices
connected to the KVM over IP switch are changed to grayscale. This can
speed up I/O transfer in low bandwidth situations.
If Enable Client AP Device List is enabled, the switch appears in the
Server List when using the WinClient or Java Client AP (see Windows
Client AP Login, page 40, and Java Client AP Login, page 44). If this
option is not enabled, the switch can still be connected to, but its name will
not appear in the Server List.
If Enable First Logon Transfer is enabled, only the first user on a bus can
switch ports. Other users on the bus cannot switch ports unless there is a
bus that is already connected to the port they would like to access, or there
is a free bus available. (For details regarding users and buses, see Users
and Buses, page 212.)
For Keyboard/Mouse Broadcast, drop-down the list to make your choice.
To use broadcasting, see The Port Toolbar, page 204.
If you enable Keyboard Broadcast, your keystrokes will be duplicated
on all the attached servers that currently appear in the Sidebar.
If you enable Mouse Broadcast, your mouse movements and clicks
will be duplicated on all attached servers currently in the Sidebar.
Note: 1. On a KVM switch that is cascaded from the KVM over IP
switch, only one port can perform a Keyboard/Mouse
broadcast at a time.
