The main menu window may be moved by clicking and dragging on the title bar. It can be
closed by pressing Escape, or by clicking on the red X in the top right corner.
Here is a guide outlining various fields from the Main Menu. Most of the functions
operate immediately. Other functions require a response to a confirmation prompt first
before performing the requested function.
Identification: Fixed text label that is defined by the user in the Web interface. This
does not affect the operation of the system and is intended to assist with
administration.
Status: Current status of the attached system and the status of the unit.
B/W Min/Avg/Max/Auto: Bandwidth control. current operation will be indicated with
white highlighting. If you choose Min/Avg/Max then you will override the default, Auto.
As the automatic mode measures actual network performance, you may see the
current mode switch from Min up to Avg or Max. The different modes indicate more
time spent on compression versus more bandwidth. There is no visual difference
between the modes, but there can be a noticeable difference in speed and
smoothness.

working.

the host is not recognizing USB input devices, this button may be used to restore
functionality.

to take control away from another user. Only one user may control the keyboard and
mouse at any time. All users see the same picture. Please note: It is important that
multiple users not be connected to the same physical network.
