Multi-screen identification method

Abstract

The invention provides a method for recognizing of multiple monitors. A traversing test is carried out by moving a mouse and the relative positional relation among different monitors is determined according to the stop position of the mouse. Accordingly, the relative position among multiple monitors at a distal end can be identified automatically and is mapped onto a central control computer to be watched by a user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multi-screen identification method, in particular to a method capable of automatically identifying the relative positions of the multi-screens. Background technique [0002] A KVM switch (Keyboard-Video-Mouse Switch; KVM Switch) enables users to manage and control multiple controlled (target) computers with a single set of keyboards, screens and mice. This group of keyboards, monitors and mice is connected to multiple controlled (target) computers via a KVM switch. Through the KVM switch, the signals from the screen and the mouse can be transmitted to one of the selected controlled (target) computers, and the controlled (target) computer can also output images to the screen through the KVM switch. This saves space, energy and hardware costs. KVM switches are suitable for data centers, computer rooms, general individuals and machine equipment in factory production lines. [0003] A KVM switch with a network interface can al...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Nowadays, some computers can output multiple video signals to multiple screens at the same time. Multiple computers that can individually output one video signal), because the connection between the KVM switch and the target computer is only a hardware level (for the target computer, the KVM switch is only a set of keyboards, screens and mice), so The KVM switch cannot directly obtain relevant information from the operating system of the target computer, so the traditional KVM switch has no way to know whether the multiple video signals come from the same target computer or multiple target computers, and cannot know how many The relative position between the two screens must be set manually by the user on the KVM switch, otherwise problems will occur in the context of using the KVM switch and connecting multiple screens to the target computer

However, since there may be many different settings for the relative positions of multiple screens, if the user has to do it manually, it will also cause inconvenience to the user.
