Host selection
The Hosts button on the menu bar provides the quickest and most efficient way
to switch between host computers. This is because the button is close at hand,
but also because the screen calibration details for each host are reused when
this method of switching is used. The alternative is to use hotkey combinations
or the AdderView CATxIP 1000 on-screen menu.
Note: The Hosts button is
displayed only when the
switching details for two or more
computers have been declared
within the configuration section
by the admin user.
To select a host
1 Click the Hosts button to
display a list of computers.
Note: If there are ten or less
entries, then the list will
appear as a simple drop down
(as shown below).
2 Click the required computer
name to view and control it.
You can use the List Order
option to determine
whether the hosts are listed
by their entry number or
alphabetically.
See Appendix 2 - Host
configuration for details about
programming new hosts into the
AdderView CATxIP 1000 (‘admin’ user
status required).
Configure
This option is displayed only when you are logged on as the ‘admin’ user. When
selected it provides access to a wide range of AdderView CATxIP 1000 settings.
See Appendix 2 - Configuration pages via viewer for more details.
Mouse pointers
Both viewers provide a double mouse cursor to help overcome any delays
caused by slow connections. When you move your mouse you will see two
mouse cursors, a local one that responds immediately to your movements and a
second, slower moving, cursor that represents the current mouse position at the
host.
For the browser viewer, the local
cursor is a typical arrow:
For the VNC viewer, the local
cursor is a dot:
Local dot cursor
Remote host cursor
Local cursor
Remote host cursor
Additionally, for fast network
connections, the VNC viewer also
provides a single mouse mode.
See Controls - Single Mouse for
details.
