Copying console config settings

If a user console of the KVM matrix system is replaced by another device, the previ-

ous config settings can be copied to the new device.

Afterwards the new device can be immediately operated.

How to copy user console config settings:

1. In the directory tree, click

KVM Matrix systems > [Name] > User modules

.

2. Right-click the new console and click on

Move to...

on the context menu.

A new window provides a list with all inactive or deleted user consoles.

3. Select the user console whose configuration settings you want to copy.

4. Click

OK

to copy the configuration settings.

Deleting user consoles from the KVM matrix system

If the KVM matrix system is not able to detect a user console that already has been

connected to the system, the console is considered inactive.

Delete the list entry of the console that is to be permanently removed from the system.

How to delete user consoles that are switched off or disconnected from the system:

1. Click on

KVM Matrix systems > [Name] > User modules

in the tree view.

2. Right-click the user console you want to delete and click

Settings for special hardware

Adjusting the scancode set of a PS/2 keyboard

If a key is pressed on the PS/2 keyboard, the keyboard processor sends a data packet

that is called scan code. The two common scan code sets (sets 2 and 3) contain dif-

ferent scan codes.

The KVM switch interprets all inputs of the PS/2 keyboard with scan code set 2.

If the pipe (“|”) cannot be entered or if the arrow keys of the keyboard do not work

as expected, it is recommended to switch to scan code set 3.

IMPORTANT:

After the settings of a user console have been copied, the use console

is deleted from the KVM matrix system.

NOTE:

Only administrators and users with the Superuser right can delete inactive

user consoles.
