HP BIOS Serial Console/EMS Support Settings and Configuration 15

IMPORTANT: Enabling port settings enables console redirection only at POST commands and configuration utilities. For information on console redirection of the OS, refer to "Operating System Support (on page 17)."

NOTE: Systems with iLO require version 1.05 iLO firmware or greater to run BIOS Serial Console.

Keystroke Emulation

Because not all terminal emulation programs support function keys or special characters, certain keystroke sequences are required for some commands.

Escape Sequences

BIOS Serial Console enables you to manually input unsupported keystrokes by entering escape sequences. Each character must be entered within 2 seconds of pressing and holding down the Esc key to emulate the escape sequence.
