Miscellaneous Video Settings
• Noise filter
This option defines how the IP-KVM reacts to small changes in the video input signal.
Turning on the noise filter can help reduce video flickering that is often caused by
distortions, as well as lowering unnecessary bandwidth consumption. A large filter
setting needs less network traffic and leads to a faster video display, but small changes in
some display regions may not be recognized immediately. A small filter displays all
changes instantly but may lead to a constant amount of network traffic even if the
display content is not really changing (depending on the quality of the video input
signal). All in all the default setting should be suitable for most situations.
• Force Composite Sync (Required for Sun Computers)
When connecting the device directly to legacy Sun computer (with composite sync as
the video output, it may be possible that IP-KVM don’t recognize the composite sync
automatically. To support signal transmission from a Sun machine, enable this option.
If not enabled the picture of the remote console will not be visible.
To set the options, click on the button Apply.
