5.12.2 Mouse Synchronization
Enabling Mouse Synchronization in the KVM session profile provides improved mouse tracking on the
target device. If Mouse Synchronization is enabled, it is not necessary to disable mouse acceleration on
the target device.
The Video Viewer window offers five appearance choices for the local mouse cursor. You can also choose
no cursor or the default cursor.
NOTE: Mouse Synchronization is supported on Windows®, Macintosh and Linux® (RHEL 6.x or later
and SLES11)target devices connected with a USB-2 IQ module.
To set Mouse Synchronization:
1. Select Tools - Session Options.
2. Click the Mouse tab.
3. Under the Local Cursor heading, select the cursor type you want to use.
4. Under the Mouse Scaling heading, use the radio button to select the desired speed. High sets a
faster tracking speed while Low sets a slower tracking speed.
5. Under the Single Cursor heading, use the drop-down menu to specify a key for exiting Single
Cursor mode.
6. Under the Mouse Synchronization heading, the current status is shown. Enable or disable the
Enable Synchronization checkbox.
NOTE: On supported system configurations, the Mouse Synchronization status is Available. If the
target device is running a supported operating system but is not connected with a USB-2 IQ module,
the status is Not Supported. If the target device is connected with a USB-2 IQ module, but is not
running a Windows® or Macintosh® operating system, the status is Not Available.

of packets per second required to support a static screen by observing the packet rate located in the
