Keyboard Macros
Keyboard macros ensure that keystroke combinations intended for the
target server are sent to and interpreted only by the target server.
Otherwise, they might be interpreted by the computer on which the
Virtual KVM Client is running (your client PC).
Macros are stored on the client PC and are PC-specific. Therefore, if you
use another PC, you cannot see your macros. In addition, if another
person uses your PC and logs in under a different name, that user will
see your macros since they are computer-wide.
Keyboard macros created in the Virtual KVM Client are available in Multi-
Platform Client (MPC) and vice versa. However, keyboard macros
created in Active KVM Client (AKC) cannot be used in VKC or MPC, and
vice versa.
Note: KX II-101 does not support AKC.
Import/Export Keyboard Macros
Macros exported from Active KVM Client (AKC) cannot be imported into
Multi-Platform Client (MPC) or Virtual KVM Client (VKC). Macros
exported from MPC or VKC cannot be imported into AKC.
Note: KX II-101 does not support AKC.
