Figure 22- Select ports for scanning
The selected port is highlighted with a green bar. To select another port, the user can use the arrow keys or mouse movement.
The name of the selected port is displayed at the bottom left of the menu.
When <

Language Selection
Note: The LANGUAGE SELECTION option will only be accessible if the administrator is logged in.
To enter the Select Language menu press <
L
> from the Change
Settings menu described on page 21.
The Language Selection menu enables the user to manually
configure the UNIMUX to emulate a specific international SUN
keyboard regardless of what actual keyboard is connected.
This is recommended when the CPU needs the layout code (i.e.
a SUN CPU) and the keyboard doesn't have an explicit layout
code (i.e. Windows keyboards).
To choose a language, scroll through the menu (using either the
mouse or up/down arrows) and when the desired language is
highlighted press <
Enter
> on the main keyboard. The selected
language will be highlighted in red. Press <
Esc
> to return to the
Change Settings menu.

MAC Ports Configuration
Note: The CONFIGURE MAC PORTS option will only be accessible if the administrator is logged in.
MAC Ports Configuration menu enables the administrator to select specific ports to be connected to MAC CPUs for passing
mouse information to the MAC CPUs. This is useful when the user wants to use mouse drivers provided by the mouse vendor,
which allows the use of programmable functions for each button. Ports should be configured at installation time or whenever
necessary. After setting, the configuration is stored in non-volatile memory and will be retrieved whenever the switch is powered-
ON. When the port is connected to a Windows or SUN CPU, this configuration SHOULD BE DISABLED. By default, all ports are
configured as non-MAC CPUs (Windows and SUN).
Note: If a port is configured as connected to a non-MAC CPU, but is in fact connected to a MAC CPU, the mouse will
still work as a generic mouse. No special functions provided by software drivers will be available.
To enter the MAC Ports Configuration menu, the administrator must press <
M
> from the Change Settings menu, described on
page 21.
