Adder Technology 5000 Keyboard Control, Enable Sun Translation, Standard keyboard, Video Settings

Keyboard Control

This option displays a keyboard control dialog and is useful for sending keyboard combinations (to the host) that are needed regularly or that are trapped by the AdderView CATxIP 5000.

Enable Sun Translation

When enabled, this mode translates certain keyboard sequences to represent the special keys that are present on Sun keyboard. Use this when using a standard keyboard while connecting to a Sun system.

Notes:

The Enable/Disable status of the Sun translation mode is retained, so this mode selection only needs to be done once per host.

Click to send the contents of the clipboard to the host

The mode selection only affects the host being viewed, so can be set differently for different hosts.

Standard keyboard	Sun keyboard

Right-[Ctrl] [F2]	Again
Right-[Ctrl] [F3]	Props

When entering codes:

+means press down the key that follows

– means release the key that follows

+– means press down and release the key that follows

*means wait 250ms (note: if a number immediately follows the asterisk, then the delay will equal the number, in milliseconds)

It is automatically assumed that all keys specified will be released at the end, so there is need to specify -Ctrl or -Alt if these keys are to be released together.

See Appendix 9 for a list of key sequence codes that can be used. Examples:

‘Ctrl + Alt 12’ would be expressed as: +Ctrl+ Alt+1–1+2 +N means press the ‘N’ key

+Scroll means press the Scroll lock key +Space means press the space key
