Network latency, which is the total time it takes for a packet to get to
the CABCONS1716I and come back, has the biggest impact on
perceived performance and usability.
Network bandwidth has a lesser effect, particularly when just moving
the mouse around. Only a few bytes need to be sent when the mouse
is moving (and nothing else is changing on the screen), but the round-
trip-time limits the hand-eye coordination of the user if it is too great.
Both actual bandwidth and measured network latency are shown in the
Main Menu.

Using the Advanced Video Tuning feature

The Advanced Video Tuning menu allows you to adjust the qualities
of the video in your VNC sessions, and can be accessed by clicking the
Advanced button on the Video Tuning VNC menu. While many users will
probably allow the CABCONS1716I to automatically configure the video
properties, you can use this menu to exercise a great deal of control over
the settings if required.
The Presets section contains up to sixteen different settings, plus the
factory setting. If a number is highlighted, then that preset has been
programmed with valid settings and may be used. Please note that the
Factory preset is always available and can be restored by simply clicking
on the appropriate button.
To save settings to a preset, click on the Save->Preset button in the
Actions pane. The preset buttons will highlight. Click the desired preset
button to save the values. Note that any previous settings assigned to
that button will be lost. If you do not wish to save the presets after clicking
the Save->Preset button, click the Save->Preset button a second time
and the save function will be canceled.
The section of the screen marked Current Values indicates the various
video parameters that can be adjusted. For each parameter, there are a
series of buttons: [, <<, -, Auto, +, >, ].
The ' [' and ']' buttons set the parameter to its smallest or largest values,
respectively.
The ' <<' and '>>' buttons decrease or increase the parameter by a
large amount. In the case of phase, this is 4 units. For all others, this
