3.11.6 Resetting the keyboard and mouse values
You can reset the keyboard and mouse by clicking Commands - Device Reset. If the
keyboard or mouse is still not responding, you might be able to re-establish opera tion of
these peripheral switches by issuing a Reset command for the mouse and keyboard
settings on the target server. The Reset command sends a hot-plug sequence to the
KVM-IA, which causes the mouse and keyboard settings to be sent to the earlier
appliance model. With communication re-established between the KVM-IA and the
earlier appliance model, functionality is restored to the user. This function is for
Microsoft Windows-based computers only. Resetting the keyboard and mouse on a
target device running any other operating system might require that you reboot that
target device.
