Chapter 5. Usage
Undo Changes
Restore last settings.
Note: The Video Settings Panel and the according entry in the Options menu is only
available for members of the “administrator” group and the user “super”.
Refresh Video
Use this option to refresh the video picture. The video data for the Remote Console
is updated completely.
On startup of the Remote Console, the B050-000 transmits the entire video picture
from the remote host. Subsequently, the parts of the video picture that did not change
are filtered and not transmitted, again. This leads to less video data to be transmitted.
It may happen that there are parts of the video picture that are not updated correctly
(video noise, compression errors). You may use this option to initiate an entire re-
fresh, manually.
Soft Keyboard
The Soft Keyboard simulates an entire keyboard that is connected to the remote sys-
tem. It is necessary in case your remote system runs with a completely different lan-
guage and country mapping than your administration machine. By selecting the ac-
cording button(s) you can send key codes and also key sequences to the remote sys-
tem and act as if you would work with a keyboard that is directly connected to the
remote system.
In order to open the Soft Keyboard select the entry “Soft Keyboard” from the Options
menu. You can send single key strokes like F as well as combinations of keys such as
Ctrl+C or AltGr+Shift+F4.
For a single key stroke you can click on the button with the according character.
Single keys such as regular characters and numbers are sent immediately. Special
keys like Ctrl, Shift as well as the function keys F1 to F12 have to be selected twice.
The first press sends the signal “key is pressed”, the second press indicated the signal
“key is released” to the remote system. After the first press the button will change its
color to signalize that the according key is pressed, currently. After the second press
the button will appear as usual and signalize that the key was sent.
To send the key combination Ctrl+C select the button Ctrl first. The button will
change its color. Press the button C. The following key (C in our example) will be
combined with the previously selected key. Both the buttons Ctrl and C are released
and the key combination will be sent to the remote system. The button Ctrl will
appear as normal (color change).
In order to send the key combination Ctrl+F5 three steps have to be done. Select the
button Ctrl once and the button F5 twice. The last press will release both buttons
and send the key combination to the remote system.
In order to send the key combination AltGr+Shift+F4 four steps are required. First,
select the button AltGr once. Second, select the button Shift. Finally, choose the but-
ton F4 twice. The last press will release all the buttons and send the key combination
to the remote system.
