Input Director is a Windows application that enables controlling multiple Windows systems with the keyboard/mouse attached to one of the computers.

Easy to Use

• Easy to follow installation and usage guides - setup only takes a few minutes
• Tell Input Director how your monitors are positioned simply by dragging them to the correct spot on the monitor grid:
• Multi-monitor support
• Shared Clipboard - copy and paste between computers (including files!)
• Compatible with Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7, Windows 2008, Windows Vista, Windows 2003 and Windows XP(SP2)
• Transitioning control to another computer is a simple as moving your cursor off the screen on one computer for it to jump to the other
• Able to control a computer without needing to login to it first
• Supports Windows fast user switching
• Compatible with Windows User Account Control pop-ups

Manage all your computers at once

• Simultaneously lock all computers
• Synchronise the screensavers across your computers
• Synchronise shutdown of your system (or individually configure whether a computer goes to standby, hibernate or shuts down)

Security

• Encrypt network data between Input Director controlled computers using AES with a 128, 192 or 256bit key
• Lock down the Input Director configuration so that only System Administrators may make changes
• Systems can limit which master systems can control them by host name, ip address or network subnet

Transition Features

• Ripples surround the cursor for a few seconds after transitioning to help the eye follow the cursor from one computer to another:
• Transitioning using the mouse can be setup to occur:
  • Immediately when the cursor hits the edge of the screen
  • If the screen edge is double tapped by the cursor
  • If the cursor momentarily pauses at the edge of the screen
• Can be configured to limit transitions near the corners of computer monitors to avoid accidental slippage between systems
• Can also set a key (or keys) that must be held down to permit transitions between systems
• Hotkeys can be setup to switch control to a specific computer or move to the next computer to the left or right

Keyboard and Mouse Features

• Choose to use your mouse (speed, button order) preferences when directing another system
• Supports different keyboard layouts
• The keyboard LEDs (Caps Lock, Scroll Lock and Num Lock) reflect the status of the computer being controlled
• Mirror input - Broadcast mouse gestures and/or keyboard input to all computers simultaneously
• Keyboard macros - record a sequence of keystrokes that can then be run by hotkey. Macros can be broadcast to all computers, played on the system being controlled, or tied to a particular computer
• Key bindings - permanently bind a key to another key on a specified system
