Launching Dominion KX Manager

The Dominion KX Manager is a Java applet, which requires Java to
function. When launching Dominion KX Manager via the web, KX
Manager checks the client's version of Java. If the version is incorrect or
outdated, KX Manager leads you through the updated Java installation.

The Dominion KX Manager currently requires the following Java
versions:

• Sun Java 1.4.2_05 or greater
• Sun Java 1.5.0 or greater except Sun Java 1.5.0_02, due to issues with

this Java version

Note: Because of a limitation in the JRE, Linux and Solaris clients receive
an invalid response from Alt-Gr on UK Language keyboards. Linux and
Solaris do not pick up events for the Alt-Gr key combination for Java
1.4.2 or 1.5. Java 1.6 appears to improve on this, although the keyPressed
and keyReleased events for Alt-Gr still identify it as an "unknown key
code".

Also, a key pressed in combination with Al-tGr (such as on the UK
keyboard AltGr-4, which is the Euro symbol, will only generate a
keyTyped followed by a keyReleased event for that value, without a
keyPressed event. Java 1.6 improves upon this by filling in the
keyPressed event as well.

Launch KX Manager in one of these ways:

• Via RRC/MPC by clicking a device's Admin Port.
• Directly from a web browser by entering: http://IP-ADDRESS/admin

where IP-ADDRESS is the IP Address assigned to your KX device A
browser will prompt you to grant permission to retrieve and launch
KX Manager.
