B Terminal Emulation Keys

When keyboard commands are redirected to the NetServer's keyboard from a
remote console, keystrokes generated on a generic terminal keyboard may not be
able to control all the NetServer's keyboard keys. When there is no direct
mapping between the remote keyboard and the NetServer keyboard, special keys
on the NetServer keyboard are emulated using character strings.
This is why keys such as ESC and Home must be emulated in the form of ANSI
escape sequences to access HP NetServer functions remotely. If you choose not to
use pcANYWHERE32 (which has pre-defined emulation keys), you will need to
program macro keys to correspond to the Remote Console Redirection escape
sequences.
PC keystrokes that have no ASCII/ANSI terminal equivalents, but are recognized
by the HP NetServer BIOS, can only be used after you have logged onto the
NetServer. These BIOS specific commands are initiated by pressing Alt-0 (zero)
if the terminal has been set up correctly.
Most terminal emulation software permits the mapping of special keys to
character strings. If this is not true of the software you are using, you must send
strings manually. The tables below provide a guide to keyboard emulation, both
with keyboard combinations (where keys are held down together) and keystroke
sequences (where a string of keystrokes is entered).
