Auto Mouse Speed and Mouse Synchronization

The automatic mouse speed mode performs the speed detection during mouse synchronization.

Whenever the mouse does not behave correctly, there are two ways for re-synchronizing local and

remote mouse:

Fast Sync

The fast synchronization is used to correct a temporary but ﬁxed skew. Choose this option from the

Remote Console Options menu (entry: Mouse Handling). If deﬁned you may also press the mouse

synchronization hotkey sequence (see

the Section called Remote Console Control Bar in Chapter 5

for details)

Intelligent Sync

If the Fast Sync does not work or the mouse settings have been changed on the host system, use the

Intelligent Synchronization, instead. This method adjusts the parameters for the actual movement of

the mouse pointer so that the mouse pointer is displayed at the correct position on the screen.

This method takes longer than the Fast Sync and can be accessed with the appropriate item in the

Remote Console Option menu (entry: Mouse Handling).

On top of that please note that the shape of the mouse pointer has a signiﬁcant inﬂuence on the

pointer detection. We recommend to use a simple, but common pointer shape. In most cases, the

detection and synchronization of animated pointer shapes is likely to fail. In general, pointer shapes

that change during the pointer detection process are almost impossible to ﬁnd in the transmitted

video picture. With the usage of a standard mouse pointer shape the detection is rather simple and

the synchronization works best.

Figure 4-3. Remote Console Control Bar: Sync Mouse Button

The "Sync Mouse" button in the Remote Console Tool Bar can behave differently, depending on the

current state of the mouse synchronization. Usually pressing this button leads to a Fast Sync, except

in situations where the KVM port or the video mode have recently changed. See also

the Section called Remote Console Control Bar in Chapter 5.

Host System Mouse Settings

The host’s operating system knows various settings for the mouse driver.

Note: The following limitations do not apply to USB mice and Mouse Type "MS Windows 2000 and

newer" (Absolute Mouse Mode).
