Cursor settings
When using the DSView management software, your mouse pointer will change shape when over a
Video Viewer window. You may change the appearance of this second local cursor or eliminate it
from within the DSView management software.
Scaling
You may choose among three preconfigured mouse scaling options or set your own custom scaling.
The preconfigured settings are: Default (1:1), High (2:1) or Low (1:2), as follows:
In a 1:1 scaling ratio, every mouse movement on the desktop window will send an equivalent
mouse movement to the server.
In a 2:1 scaling ratio, the same mouse movement will send a 2X mouse movement.
In a 1:2 scaling ratio, the value will be 1/2X.
Alignment
Because the DSView management software cannot get constant feedback from the mouse, there are
times when the mouse on the DS1800 digital switch or DSR switch may lose sync with the mouse
on the host system. If your mouse or keyboard no longer responds properly, you may align the
mouse to re-establish proper tracking.
