Selecting The Usb Keyboard Type - Guntermann & Drunck miniMUX2 Installationsanleitung

Selecting the USB keyboard type

NOTE:
This function is only relevant for computers which are connected to the
KVM switch using a USB KVM connection cable.
Various manufacturers added special keys to the standard keyboards. Some key-
boards are provided with multimedia keys which enable the user to easily operate
special multimedia functions of the computer.
Compared to standard keyboards, Sun desktops and servers are provided with sepa-
rate keys (Solaris Shortcut Keys) to operate special system functions. These keys can be
used at the console after enabling the keyboard mode for Sun desktops and servers.
If the console only has a standard keyboard available, several key combinations are
provided to emulate Solaris Shortcut Keys (see page 29).
Select the USB keyboard type in the setup menu in order to use all keys of such key-
boards.
NOTE: The USB keyboard type can only be changed in the setup menu.
