Raritan Engineering DVD VCR Combo 255-80-6030 Manuel D’Utilisation

Dominion KX’s dynamic video compression algorithms maintain usability of KVM consoles under varying bandwidth 
environments. Dominion KX can optimize its output not just for the corporate LAN, but also for lower-bandwidth WAN and 
dial-up connections. By adjusting color depth and limiting video output, Dominion KX offers the optimal balance between 
video quality and system responsiveness in any bandwidth constraint.  Familiarize yourself with the following parameters to 
adjust performance options even further. 
 

Video Smoothing 
 
Setting the video smoothing level too high can prohibit Dominion KX from correctly transmitting color gradations. 
On the menu bar, select Connection >Properties to adjust the Smoothing level to an appropriate setting for your environment. 
 
Noise Filter 
 
All video graphics cards generate electrical noise that cannot be seen by the naked eye when displayed on a monitor. Dominion KX 
reduces the bandwidth it consumes by intelligently ignoring extraneous signal noise.  Setting the noise filter too high can prohibit 
Dominion KX from correctly transmitting screen changes.  On the menu bar, select Video > Video Settings to adjust the Noise Filter level to 
an appropriate setting for your environment. 

 

Color Calibration 
 
Some video cards output non-standard signal levels. Perform a color calibration upon inital setup to optimize 
transmitted color for accuracy: 
 
1. On the remote server desktop that you are controlling with Dominion KX, ensure that a solid white color covers approximately 15% or 
more of the screen. One simple way to accomplish this is to open the Notepad application and maximize its window size: 
2. On the RRC menu bar, select Video > Calibrate Color to perform the color calibration.
