Figure 6 The remote console 
You can work on it with the keyboard and mouse. The delay with keyboard and 
mouse reactions - if any - depends on the line connection bandwidth.  
12. Keyboard 
layout 
Your host keyboard changes its layout to match the remote host system. So for 
example if the host system uses a US English keyboard layout, special keys on a 
German keyboard won't work but will function as US English keys.  
To solve this problem, adjust the remote system keyboard to the same mapping as 
your host one. Alternatively, use the Soft-Keyboard that is part of the Remote 
Console applet.  
The Remote Console window is a Java Applet that tries to establish its own TCP 
connection to Smart 16 IP. The protocol that is run over this connection is not 
HTTP or HTTPS but a protocol called RFB (Remote Frame Buffer Protocol). 
Currently RFB tries to establish a connection to port number 443. Your local 
network environment must allow this connection to be made, i.e. your firewall 
and, in case you have a private internal network, your NAT (Network Address 
Translation) settings must be configured accordingly.
