User guide
If you enable Allow users to override this setting, or if no profile is assigned to the target
device, users may enable/disable background refresh using Video Viewer menu commands.
Users may also use the Refresh Image command. See Video commands on page 303.
Managing KVM session profiles
Only appliance administrators may display, add, change or delete a KVM session profile. To
assign a profile to a target device, the user must either be an appliance administrator or have
unit configure or edit rights. These operations are all performed in the DSView Explorer.
To display KVM session profile names and settings:
1. Click the Units tab.
2. Click Profiles in the top navigation bar. The KVM Session Profiles window will open,
listing the profile names.
3. To view a profile’s settings, click the profile name, then click General, Cursor, Toolbar or
Video in the side navigation bar to view the settings.
4. Click Close.
To add a KVM session profile:
1. Click the Units tab.
2. Click Profiles in the top navigation bar. The KVM Session Profiles window will open.
3. Click Add. The Add KVM Session Profile window will open.
4. Enter a 1-64 character name for the new profile. The name cannot be the same as the name
of an existing KVM session profile.
5. Click Add. The new profile will be created with all values set to Inherit Default Settings.
To change a KVM session profile:
1. Click the Units tab.
2. Click Profiles in the top navigation bar. The KVM Session Profiles window will open.

• For many settings, the choices will include Inherit Default Settings, if you are
changing any profile other than the default profile. When you select Inherit Default
Settings, the fields for that setting will automatically be filled with values from the
Default KVM Session Profile; these values cannot be changed.
