Language Selection

NOTE: The LANGUAGE SELECTION option will only be accessible if the administrator is logged in.

To enter the Select Language menu press <L> from the Change

Settings menu described on page 14.

The Language Selection menu enables the user to manually configure the UNIMUX to emulate a specific international Sun keyboard regardless of what actual keyboard is connected. This is recommended when the CPU needs the layout code (i.e. a SUN CPU) and the keyboard doesn't have an explicit layout code (i.e. Windows keyboards).

To choose a language, scroll through the menu (using either the mouse or up/down arrows) and when the desired language is highlighted press <Enter> on the main keyboard. The selected language will be highlighted in red. Press <Esc> to return to the Change Settings menu.

MAC Ports Configuration

NOTE: The CONFIGURE MAC PORTS option will only be accessible if the administrator is logged in.

MAC Ports Configuration menu enables the administrator to select specific ports to be connected to MAC CPUs for passing mouse information to the MAC CPUs. This is useful when the user wants to use mouse drivers provided by the mouse vendor, which allows the use of programmable functions for each button. Ports should be configured at installation time or whenever necessary. After setting, the configuration is stored in non-volatile memory and will be retrieved whenever the switch is power ON. When the port is connected to a Windows or SUN CPU, this configuration SHOULD BE DISABLED. By default, all ports are configured as non-MAC CPUs (Windows and SUN).

NOTE: If a port is configured as connected to a non-MAC CPU, but is in fact connected to a MAC CPU, the mouse will still work as a generic mouse. No special functions provided by software drivers will be available.

To enter the MAC Ports Configuration menu, the administrator must press <M> from the Change Settings menu, described on page 14.

A check list with all the ports numbers preceded by a check-box will be displayed in the window.

unchecked box = the corresponding port is set as connected to a non-MAC CPU

checked box = the corresponding port is set as connected to a MAC CPU

In order to change the status of a port, the administrator has to first select the port. The selected port is highlighted with a green bar.

To select another port, the administrator can use the arrow keys or mouse movement. The name of the selected port is displayed at the bottom left of the menu, right above the yellow bar.

The administrator can toggle the state of the selected check box by pressing the <Spacebar> or clicking the left mouse button.

Press <S> to check all the ports

Press <C> to uncheck all the ports

Figure 17- Configure Ports for MAC screen

When <Esc> is pressed, the display will return to the Change Settings menu. The list is automatically saved.

The settings apply to all users of the switch.
