User select box
This selection box displays the user ID for which the values are shown and for which the
changes will take effect. You may change the settings of other users if you have the
necessary access rights.
Transmission Encoding
The Transmission Encoding setting allows changing the image-encoding algorithm that is
used to transmit the video data to the Remote Console window. It is possible to optimize
the speed of the remote screen depending on the number of users working at the same
time and the bandwidth of the connection line (Modem, ISDN, DSL, LAN, etc.).
Automatic detection
The encoding and the compression level is determined automatically from the
available bandwidth and the current content of the video image.
Pre-configured
The pre-configured settings deliver the best result because of optimized adjustment
of compression and colour depth for the indicated network speed.
Manually
Allows to adjust both compression rate and the colour depth individually. Depending
on the selected compression rate the data stream between the KVM-9000 and the
Remote Console will be compressed in order to save bandwidth. Since high
compression rates are very time consuming, they should not be used while several
users are accessing the KVM-9000 simultaneously.
The standard color depth is 8 Bit (256 colors). The other color depths are intended for
slower network connections in order to allow a faster transmission of data. Therefore
compression level 0 (no compression) uses only 8 Bit color depth. At lower
bandwidths only 4 Bit (16 colors) and 2 Bit (4 grey scales) are recommended for
typical desktop interfaces. Photo-like pictures have best results with 4 Bit (16 grey
scales). 1 Bit color depth (black/white) should only be used for extremely slow
network connections.
