Alternate HSM Invocation Keys
An alternate set of HSM invocation keys is provided in case the default set conflicts with
programs running on the computers. To switch to the alternate HSM invocation set:
1. Invoke HSM as described in the "Invoking HSM" section in this chapter.
2. Press the H key.
The HSM invocation keys become the Ctrl key (instead of Num Lock) and the F12 key
(instead of minus).
NOTE: To revert back to the original HSM invocation keys, invoke HSM, then press the H key again.
Alternate Port Switching Keys
The port switching activation keys can be changed from pressing the Scroll Lock key twice
to pressing the Ctrl key twice. To change the port switching activation keys:
1. Invoke HSM as described in the "Invoking HSM" section in this chapter.
2. Press the T key.
NOTE: To revert back to the original method, invoke HSM, then press the T key again.
Keyboard Operating Platform
The switch default port configuration is for a PC-compatible keyboard operating platform. If
your requirements call for different port settings (you have a Macintosh or Sun system
attached to a port), you can change the keyboard operating platform configuration for that
port.
To change the configuration:
1. Bring the KVM focus to the port you want to set.
2. Invoke HSM as described in the "Invoking HSM" section in this chapter.
3. Press the appropriate function key as described in Table 3-4. After completing a setting,
you automatically exit HSM.
