3.11.6Resetting 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 operation 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.
