Setting the keyboard country code
By default, the KVM switch sends the US keyboard country code to USB cables attached to target devices, and the code is applied to the target devices when they are turned on or rebooted. Codes are then stored in the KVM server module. Using a keyboard code that supports a language different from that of the KVM switch firmware will cause incorrect keyboard mapping.
If multiple keyboards are connected to the local port, they must be of the KVM server module type (PC or Mac) and of the KVM server module language. Only local users can view or change keyboard country code settings.
Issues might arise when you use the US keyboard country code with a keyboard of another country. For example, the Z key on a US keyboard is in the KVM server module location as the Y key on a German keyboard.
