6-3-2 USB session switching
New with RGS 5.1.3 is the ability to dynamically move USB devices from one Remote Computer to another. This
enables USB devices to be detached from one Remote Computer, and made accessible by another Remote
Computer without first needing to disconnect the RGS connections. To move USB devices to a different Remote
Computer in Directory Mode, simply specify the new Remote Computer (Sender) in the Select sender: dropdown
menu (see Figure 6-16). The USB devices will be detached from the current computer and attached to the selected
computer.
