Set Laptop Screen Location for Mouse Cursor/Keyboard Edge Scrolling

The Application enables the KVM Dock to support Cursor Edge Scrolling between

computers. The mouse cursor (connected to the dock, or either computer) can

navigate from the displays associated with the active computer to the screen

integrated into the non-active laptop. The keyboard (connected to the dock, or

either computer) will also input to whichever computer the Mouse Curser is currently

occupying.

To Set Location for Mouse Cursor Edge Scrolling:

1. Right-click the Application Icon ( ) located in the system tray.

2. Based on the physical location of this laptop in relation to the Displays that are

connected to the KVM Docking Station, select one of the following options from the

system tray menu:

• Top Side

• Down Side

The cursor can now edge scroll from the Displays associated to the active computer

to the integrated laptop screen on each connected computer, based on the location

selected.

Notes:

• Both computers cannot be assigned the same location. If a newly selected

laptop location is assigned to the same location as the other laptop, the other

laptop will automatically reassign to the reverse location of what was selected.

• Windows display settings will dene all monitor locations for the active

computer.
