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.

Power cycle the UNIMUX for the reset to take effect.

Select Keyboard Language

To enter the Select Language menu (see Figure 30) press K from the System Configuration menu described on page 21. 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.

Figure 30- Select Language menu

•To manually program a specific language, select a language and press <Enter> (or click the left mouse button).

•To automatically detect the language of the keyboard, select "AutoDetect" and press <Enter> (or click the left

mouse button) . The list will advance to the actual detected keyboard language and that language will be programmed.

Some keyboards don’t have a country code. In this case the selection will remain in the “AutoDetect” position and the default country code "00" will be programmed in the UNIMUX. If a specific country code is manually programmed, it will be the country code for the switch, regardless of the actual country code of the connected keyboard. The programmed country code is saved in memory and restored each time the UNIMUX is powered-ON. Because the CPUs that use country code (i.e. SUN CPUs) read it at boot time, it is necessary to boot the CPU(s) after programming the country code.
