Why does the cursor return to the master with slave unresponsive messages?
When controlling a slave, the master monitors the slave to ensure that it is correctly processing the keyboard/mouse information sent to it over the network.

By default Input Director will give a slave to 2 seconds to respond. If the cursor is being returned to the master frequently, you can increase the time Input Director will wait: • Open Input Director on your master • Switch to the ‘Master Preferences’ tab • Scroll down to the bottom of the panel • Change the time to wait for a slave to respond, e.g.
