Support for Multimedia and Sun special keys<br />
Various manufacturers have added special keys to the standard keyboards.<br />
Some keyboards are provided with multimedia keys through which it is possible to<br />
comfortably operate special multimedia functions of the computer. For example,<br />
the keyboard of the Apple Mac mini is provided with a key to open the DVD drive.<br />
Compared to standard keyboards, Sun desktops and servers are provided with separate<br />
keys (Solaris Shortcut Keys) to operate special system functions. After the keyboard<br />
mode for Sun desktops and servers has been activated, the Solaris Shortcut<br />
Keys can be used at the console. If the console only provides a standard keyboard,<br />
several key combinations can be applied to emulate the Solaris Shortcut Keys (see<br />
page 71).<br />
Several USB keymodes are provided to use the special keys of such keyboards.<br />
How to (de)activate the support for Multimedia or Sun special keys:<br />
1. Click on KVM switches > [All switches] in the tree view.<br />
2. Right-click the KVM switch and click the <strong>Config</strong>uration entry in the context menu.<br />
3. Click the Channels tab.<br />
4. Use the field USB Keymode of the desired channel to select between the following<br />
options:<br />
PC Standard: standard keymode<br />
PC Multimedia: support for Multimedia special keys<br />
Apple: keymode for Apple computers<br />
SUN US: Sun keymode (American layout)<br />
SUN DE: Sun keymode (German layout)<br />
