Hot Keys for Emulating Sun Keyboard Keys

The KVM/net provides a default set of hot keys for use while connected to Sun servers. You can use the PC keyboard to emulate keys that are present on Sun keyboards but are not available on PC keyboards.

The hot keys are made up of a modifier key followed by a function key. The default modifier key is the Windows key [WIN], which is labeled with the Windows logo. The Windows key usually appears on the Windows keyboard between the Ctrl and Alt keys. The following table shows function keys and a key from the numeric keypad that emulate Sun equivalent keys when you enter them at the same time as the hot key. For example, to use the Sun Find key, you would press the Windows [WIN]key at the same time you press the F9 function key.
