> For End Users

> • | Console Direct™ technology – Console Direct technology (Console Direct) provides a superior experience to end users whether running office productivity applications or viewing Flash videos on sites like YouTube or CNN. Console Direct connects directly to the Windows console session, bypassing RDP and its limitations altogether. For more information about Console Direct, go to Install Pano DAS.

> • | Application responsiveness – Users will find that navigating through documents is quicker and much more responsive to user input than previous versions based on RDP technology.

> • | Internet Video – By tapping into the video display at its source within the Windows kernel, Console Direct delivers tightly synchronized audio and video. Video frames are rendered fully without tears or other artifacts that detract from the visual experience. Console Direct is able to support any video codec including Flash, Windows Media Video and Quicktime with the same level of performance for resolutions up to 480x360 (the resolution displayed by sites like YouTube and CNN). For more information about Console Direct, go to Install Pano DAS.

> • | Touch Screen and Smart Board support – Because Console Direct connects to the Windows console session, input from touch screen monitors and smart boards can be captured. The use of Console Direct technology enables the device manufacturer’s unmodified drivers to be used completely invisible to the virtual environment. RDP cannot natively support such devices because RDP connects to a user session that is independent of the console session. For a list of supported devices, go to Supported USB Devices.

> • | Composite USB Device support – More and more peripherals these days are multi-function “composite” USB devices which present multiple interfaces to Windows. Peripherals such as new Blackberry models, all-in-one printer/scanner/fax devices and various models of PDA/Smart phones are now supported by Pano VDS. For a list of supported devices, go to Supported USB Devices.
