Your server has a sound device and a USB controller. This guide shows how to hear the server and how to use a USB device from your computer.
Sound in the Web console
Sound is on when you open Console › Web console. The console toolbar switches it with Audio off and Audio on. If you hear nothing, click the page once: browsers can block sound until you interact with a page.
Sound over Remote Desktop
Remote Desktop plays the server's sound on your computer, as it does for any Windows server. If it is quiet, check Show Options › Local Resources › Remote audio in Remote Desktop Connection.
Connect a USB device
USB devices do not connect through the browser. Use the Remote console app:
- Select Console › Remote console app in the client area and open the server in the app.
- Plug the device into your computer.
- In the app's menu, open Removable Devices, choose the device and select Connect.
The device now belongs to the server, and your computer no longer uses it. Select Disconnect in the same menu to give it back.
Next steps
- Copy files to your server.
- Take a snapshot before a big change.
