To use the USB and/or PS/2 interface you need a correct cabling between
the managed host and the managing device. If the managed host has no
USB keyboard support in the BIOS and you have connected the USB cable
only then you will have no remote keyboard access during the boot process
of the host. If USB and PS/2 are both connected and you selected "Auto" as
host interface, then the card will select "USB" if available or otherwise falls
back to "PS/2".
To get USB remote keyboard access during the boot process of the host, the following
conditions must be fulfilled:
• the host BIOS must have USB keyboard support
• the USB cable must be connected or must be selected in the Host interface option
PS/2 Keyboard Model
Enables a certain keyboard layout. You can choose between "Generic 101-Key PC" for a
standard keyboard layout, "Generic 104-Key PC" for a standard keyboard layout
extendend by three additional windows keys, "Generic 106-Key PC" for a japanese
keyboard, and "Apple Macintosh" for the Apple Macintosh.
Keyboard timeout
Recommanded as "enable" for keyboard timeout when host is UNIX
or UNIX-like OS.
USB Mouse Type
Enables USB mouse type. Choose between "Windows >= 2000 , MacOSX" for MS
Windows 2000 or Windows XP, Mac OSX or "Other Operating Systems" for MS Windows
NT, Unix or Unix-like OS, or OS X. In "Windows >= 2000 , MacOSX" mode the remote
mouse is always synchronized with the local mouse.
Mouse Speed
• Auto mouse speed
Use this option if the mouse settings on host use an additional acceleration setting. The
IP-KVM switch tries to detect the acceleration and speed of the mouse during the
mouse sync process.
• Fixed mouse speed
Use a direct translation of mouse movements between the local and the remote pointer.
You may also set a fixed scaling which determines the pixel-amount of the remote
mouse pointer movement when the local mouse pointer is moved by one pixel. This
option is used to manually control the remote mouse speed and only works when the
mouse settings on the host are linear. This means mouse acceleration of OS should be
disabled, and the intelligent mouse synchronization of IP-KVM switch is not functioning
under this setting.
To set the options, click on the button "Apply".
