Intelligent Mouse Mode 
In Intelligent Mouse mode, the KX II-101 device can detect the target 
mouse settings and synchronize the mouse cursors accordingly, allowing 
mouse acceleration on the target. In this mode, the mouse cursor does a 
“dance” in the top left corner of the screen and calculates the 
acceleration. For this mode to work properly, certain conditions must be 
met. 
 
To enter intelligent mouse mode: 
• 
Choose Mouse > Intelligent. 
Intelligent Mouse Synchronization Conditions 
The Intelligent Mouse Synchronization command, available on the 
Mouse menu, automatically synchronizes mouse cursors during 
moments of inactivity. For this to work properly, however, the following 
conditions must be met: 
• 
The active desktop should be disabled on the target. 
• 
No windows should appear in the top left corner of the target page. 
• 
There should not be an animated background in the top left corner of 
the target page. 
• 
The target mouse cursor shape should be normal and not animated. 
• 
The target mouse speeds should not be set to very slow or very high 
values. 
• 
Advanced mouse properties such as “Enhanced pointer precision" or 
“Snap mouse to default button in dialogs”  should be disabled. 
• 
Choose “Best Possible Video Mode” in the Video Settings window. 
• 
The edges of the target video should be clearly visible (that is, a 
black border should be visible between the target desktop and the 
remote KVM console window when you scroll to an edge of the 
target video image). 
• 
When using the intelligent mouse synchronization function, having a 
file icon or folder icon located in the upper left corner of your desktop 
may cause the function not to work properly. To be sure to avoid any 
problems with this function, Raritan recommends you do not have file 
icons or folder icons in the upper left corner of your desktop.  
After autosensing the target video, manually initiate mouse 
synchronization by clicking the Synchronize Mouse button on the toolbar. 
This also applies when the resolution of the target changes if the mouse 
cursors start to desync from each other. 
If intelligent mouse synchronization fails, this mode will revert to standard 
mouse synchronization behavior.
