Click on the KVM Settings icon on the Home Page to activate its submenus:
Refer to Figure B-10.
• User Console: Click on this icon to activate the User Console submenu.
• User Selection: This field enables you to decide which group the user belongs to. Click on
the arrow on the right to activate the selection menu and highlight the name of the group to
select it.
• Update: Once you have selected the group name, click on Update to save the selections.
• Transmission Encoding: This field enables you to decide how (the video) data is
transmitted between the local system and the remote host.
• Automatic Detection: Select this option to allow the OS to automatically detect the
networking configuration settings such as the bandwidth of the connection line, and transmit
data accordingly.
• Pre-configured: This item enables you to select the data transmission setting from a
predefined options list. The pre-configured settings provide the best result because the
compression and color depth settings are adjusted for optimization based on the network
speed indicated.
• Network speed: Once you have selected the pre-configured option above, you then can
select a desired network speed setting from the selection menu by clicking on the arrow on
the right.
• Manually: You can select a desired network speed setting from the selection menu by
clicking on the arrow on the right. This item enables you to adjust both compression and
color depth settings individually.
• Compression: Data signal transmission is compressed to save bandwidth. High
compression rates slow down network interfacing and should not be used when several users
are connected to the network.
