Remote Session Operation; Control Panel - Eaton NetDirector B064-008-01-IPG Manual

Remote Session Operation

After you have successfully logged in (see Logging Into the
B064-Series KVM Switch section), the B064-Series KVM Switch
OSD Main Page appears with the Port Access tab selected:
Note: The AP Client and Local Console versions feature a Control Panel
in the top center of the screen that appears when scrolled over with the
mouse. The web browser version's Control Panel is only available when a
port has been accessed. (See Control Panel section for details.)

Control Panel

The Control Panel is provided as a way for the user to optimize
and control the remote session. Regardless of whether you
initiated a remote session via the Windows or Java browser
and non-browser clients, the control panel and its functionality
remain the same. To display the Control Panel, hover your mouse
pointer over the top-center of the remote screen.
The Control Panel consists of an icon bar at the top and two
text bars at the bottom. When the mouse pointer is hovered
over an icon, the description of the icon is displayed in the text
bar. When the mouse pointer is not over an icon, the text bars
display the video resolution of the selected computer and
the IP address of the KVM switch. You can drag the control
panel to any location on the remote screen by hovering over
the text bar, and then clicking-and-dragging it. Each of the
icons contained in the Control Panel and their functionality is
explained in the sections that follow.
All the ports that a user is permitted to access are listed in
the Port Selection panel at the left of the page. Ports to which
users do not have access will not be displayed in their OSD.
Double-click a port icon to access the device attached to it.
Once you switch to a port, its screen displays on your monitor.
Depending on whether you have Full Access or View Only
access to the port, you may or may not be able to operate the
remote computer using your keyboard and mouse.
Always on Top / Auto Hide – Click this button to
toggle between displaying the control panel all the
time, or to allow it to disappear after a few seconds of
inactivity.
Hotkeys / Macros – The Hotkeys / Macros page
allows the user to use Hotkeys and Macros to
manipulate the remote computers. The user can
enable/disable hotkeys, and create/edit User Macros
and System Macros. The sections that follow describe
how these features work.
