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 />
