Description
The control function allows you to remotely control a student’s mouse and keyboard from your station.
To control another station
- Select the station you would like to control.
- Click the “Watch” button in the toolbar.
- To take control, click on the “Lockout” button on the control window.

By default, when controlling a student’s station the student cannot use the keyboard or mouse. If you want to share keyboard and mouse control, click on the “Shared” button on the control window.
To stop controlling

Tips on controlling another station
- A controlled station will not be as responsive as your own station. This means that there will be a slight delay when moving the mouse or typing.
- Text quality may be degraded slightly. Increase the zoom level or the font size for more a more readable display.
