Setting the keyboard country code

NOTE: Using a keyboard code that supports a language different from that of your AutoView 3100/3200 switch firmware will cause incorrect keyboard mapping.

Sun servers may use keyboard mappings for non-US keyboards. By default, the AutoView 3100/ 3200 switch sends the US keyboard country code to Sun and USB modules attached to target devices and the code is applied to the target devices when they are powered up or rebooted. Codes are then stored in the AVRIQ module.

Issues may 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 same location as the Y key on a German keyboard. Sun servers will interpret pressing the Y key on a German keyboard as pressing the Z key when the US keyboard country code is used.

The Keyboard dialog box enables you to send a different keyboard country code than the default US setting. The specified country code is sent to all target devices attached to the AutoView 3100/ 3200 switches when powered up or rebooted and the new code is stored in the AVRIQ module.

NOTE: If an AVRIQ module is moved to a different target device, the keyboard country code needs to be reset.
