Can I control multiple PCs at the same time with one PC?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I have a situation where I have a live broadcast studio that is running 4 PCs at the same time, each running different applications. From my home office, I can connect to all 4 at the same time with one PC with 3 monitors. I connect to the 3 main PCs and put each window on a different monitor so I am looking at them all at the same time. It appears that I can control each PC by mousing over the appropriate window for a short time. But after a while, when I control one of them , then mouse over to another PC, the arrow cursor turns into a little dot and will not control that PC. Is there a way to quickly pass the mouse from PC to PC and maintain control? Can it be done at all? Thank you.

@rjdesaint As long as your Access control when connecting to other computers is set on Full Access, you should be able to remote control.

You can verify this in the TeamViewer options under Extras → Options → Advanced → Advanced settings for connections to other computers as below:

Hi Jean,

Thank you for answering so quickly. My settings have been set the way you mentioned. That is not the issue. I can move from screen to screen controlling the 3 PCs great for a few minutes. Then I loose control of one of them. I close all other connections and still cannot regain control of the remaining PC. All PCs are set to FULL ACCESS.
