Mouse Pointer Synchronization

When remotely viewing a target server that uses a mouse, you will see two mouse pointers: one
belonging to your remote client workstation and the other belonging to the target server. When
the mouse pointer lies within the Virtual KVM Client target server window, mouse movements
and clicks are directly transmitted to the connected target server. While in motion, the client
mouse pointer slightly leads the target mouse pointer due to mouse acceleration settings.
Remote Client Mouse
On fast LAN connections, you may want to disable the Virtual KVM Client mouse pointer and
view only the target server's pointer. You can toggle between these two modes (single mouse and
dual mouse). Refer to
