Sun/Mac Keyboard Mapping

The KVM Switch emulates a Sun Keyboard when a computer is marked with a Sun, in

the OSD menu by Function Key <F5>. A Sun keyboard has more keys than a standard

PC keyboard. These extra keys are simulated by tapping the right <CTRL> button

(normally located on the right lower part of the keyboard) followed by one of the

function keys on the general keyboard (i.e. combo key). For example, tap the right

<CTRL> key, and then tap the function key <F7> to activate Open for a Sun computer.
NOTE: For older Sun Operating Systems, the switch does not support the LowPower

option under Power Off Select.
For keystroke emulation of Sun/Mac computers, please refer to the chart on the

following page and conduct the following two examples:
Stop A function in Sun: Press right <CTRL> and release, then within two seconds press

F1 and A in sequence.
The Help function in Sun: Press right <CTRL> and release, then within 2 seconds, press

the H key.
