Appendix C: Informational Notes

Overview

This chapter includes important notes on Dominion KX II usage. Future updates will be
documented and available online through the Help – User Guide link in the KX II Remote
Console interface.

Non-US Keyboards

French Keyboard

Caret Symbol (Linux Clients only)
The Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client (MPC) do not process the key
combination of Alt Gr + 9 as the caret symbol (^) when using French keyboards with Linux
clients.
To obtain the caret symbol:
From a French keyboard, press the ^ key (to the right of the P key), then immediately press the
spacebar.
Alternatively, create a macro consisting of the following commands:
1. Press Right Alt
2. Press 9
3. Release 9
4. Release Right Alt
Note: These procedures do not apply to the circumflex accent (above vowels). In all cases, the ^
key (to the right of the P key) works on French keyboards to create the circumflex accent when
used in combination with another character.
Accent Symbol (Windows XP Clients only)
From the Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client, the key combination of Alt Gr + 7
results in the accented character displaying twice when using French keyboards with Windows
XP clients.
Note: This does not occur with Linux clients.
Numeric Keypad
From the Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client, the numeric keypad symbols display
as follows when using a French keyboard:
