Keyboard Operating Platform

The CS-1762 / CS-1764’s default port configuration is for a PC compatible keyboard operating platform. If your console uses a PC compatible keyboard and you have a Mac attached to a port, for example, you can change the port’s keyboard operating platform configuration so that the PC compatible keyboard emulates the Mac keyboard. The procedure is as follows:

1.Bring the KVM focus to the port you want to set.

2.Invoke HSM (see page 17)

3.Press and release the appropriate Function key (see table below). After completing this procedure, you automatically exit HSM.
