What is Background Slave mode?
The Input Director ‘Background Slave’ is active when the Input Director application isn’t running. It allows a slave to be controlled by a master and can be used to control a system prior to logging into it, as well as maintaining control of a slave when logging in as a user that does not have the Input Director application set to automatically start. The background slave is compatible with Windows ‘fast user switching’. The background slave is limited in that: • The shared clipboard isn’t available • Macros cannot be played on the slave When background slave mode is active, you can start the Input Director application or shut it down without losing control of the slave.
