4. This forces the Remote Consoles of all other users to close No one can open the Remote Console at the same time again until this user disables the exclusive access or logs off Mouse hotkey Allows to specify a hotkey combination which starts either the mouse synchronization process if pressed in the Remote Console or is used to leave the single mouse mode Hemote Console Button Keys Button Keys allow simulating keystrokes on the remote system that cannot be generated locally The reason for this might be a missing key or the fact that the local operating system of the Remote Console is unconditionally catching this keystroke already Typical examples are Control Alt Delete on Windows and DOS what is always caught or Control Backspace on Linux for terminating the X Server The syntax to define a new Button Key is as follows confirm lt keycode gt lt keycode gt confirm requests confirmation by a dialog box before the key strokes will be sent to the remote host 44 keycode is the key to be sent Multiple key codes can be concatenated with a plus or a minus sign The plus sign builds key combinations all keys will be pressed until a minus sign or the end of the combination is encountered In this case all pressed keys will be released in reversed sequence So the minus sign builds single separate keypresses and releases The star inserts a pause with duration of 100 milliseconds 6 4 2 Keyboard Mouse

7. Auto mouse speed The automatic mouse speed mode tries to detect the speed and acceleration settings of the host system automatically See the section below for a more detailed explanation Fixed mouse speed This mode just translates the mouse movements from the Remote Console in a way that one pixel move will lead to n pixel moves on the remote system This parameter n is adjustable with the scaling lt should be noted that this works only when mouse acceleration is turned off on the remote system 4 1 3 3 Auto mouse speed and mouse synchronization The automatic mouse speed mode performs the speed detection during mouse synchronization Whenever the mouse does not move 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 the option using the Remote Console options menu or press the mouse synchronization hotkey sequence in case you defined one Intelligent Sync If the fast sync does not work or the mouse settings have been changed on the host system use the intelligent resynchronization This method takes more time than the fast one and can be accessed with the appropriate item in the Remote Console option menu The intelligent synchronization requires a correctly adjusted picture Use the auto adjustment function or the manual correction in the Video Settings panel to setup the picture The Sync mouse button on top of the Remote Cons
