Alternate Command Hot Key

To enable the administrator to assign a key in addition to the <`> (accent/tilde key) to use with <Ctrl> to enter into OSD Command Mode, an Alternate Command Hot Key option is provided. The default factory setting for this option is <`> (disabling the option).

To select an Alternate Command Hot Key, press <A> from the System configuration menu (page 21). A window will open and the administrator will be prompted to press a key. Any key except Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Tab, Esc, or Enter can be used. After pressing the key, a confirmation message will appear. The administrator should press <Y> (Yes) to validate the key as the Alternate Command Hot Key, or <N> (No) to select another key.

Pressing <Esc> will return to the Administration Mode menu.

Only the administrator is able to set or change the Alternate Command Hot Key. This function must be set individually for each of the USB User Device ports on the UNIMUX USB KVM switch.

Note: The Alternated Command Hot Key does not replace the <`> (accent) key, it just works as another way to enter into Command Mode. After setting it, the user can enter into Command Mode either with <Ctrl> + <`> or with <Ctrl> + <Alternate Command Hot Key> combination. To disable it, the administrator should set <`> as the Alternate Command Hot Key.

Reset Port names

To erase all configured port names and return them to the factory-default names, press <R> from the System Configuration menu. After pressing the key, a confirmation message will appear. The administrator should press <Y> (Yes) to validate the selection or <N> (No) to cancel it.

Pressing <Esc> will return to the Administration Mode menu.

The switch must be power cycled for the reset to take effect.

Select Keyboard Language

To enter the Select Language menu (see Figure 33) press K from the System

Configuration menu described on page 22.

Only the administrator has the Select Language menu option.

The Select Language menu enables the administrator to select a specific keyboard language (country code) to be used. Typically only SUN CPUs require a specific country code to be registered at boot up. (For other types of CPUs this feature may have no effect.) A list of available languages is displayed and can be scrolled using the mouse (scroll wheel) and/or <up arrow>, <down arrow>, <Home> and <End> keys.
