Preempting the local user
If the server you are attempting to access is currently being viewed by the local
user, AVWorks allows you to preempt, or disconnect, the local user so that you
can access that server. You will see a notification display requesting that you
confirm the termination of the local user connection. The local user will
receive a notification message once you have confirmed.
NOTE: You cannot preempt the local user if he or she is in Broadcast mode. See the
AutoView 1000R/AV2000R Installer/User Guide for additional information.
To preempt the local user:
1. Select a server to access and select the Connect Video task button.
2. If the local user is already viewing this server, a message appears
informing you of this and requesting if you would like to terminate the
local user’s session. Click Yes to terminate the local user connection. The
Video Viewer launches.
-or-
Click No to allow the local user to retain the connection.
Interacting with the server being viewed
Once you have connected to a server, the server’s desktop appears in a
separate window called the Video Session Viewer. You will see both the local
and the server’s cursor. You may need to align these if they do not move
together or adjust the video if they seem to behave sporadically. See Aligning
the mouse or resetting the PS/2 connection in this chapter.
