Setting the keyboard country code
NOTE: Using a keyboard code that supports a language different from that of your DSR switch firmware will
cause incorrect keyboard mapping.
Sun servers may use keyboard mappings for non-US keyboards. By default, the DSR switch sends
the US keyboard country code to Sun and USB modules attached to target devices and the code is
applied to the target devices when they are powered up or rebooted. Codes are then stored in the
DSRIQ module.
Issues may arise when you use the US keyboard country code with a keyboard of another country.
For example, the
Z key on a US keyboard is in the same location as the Y key on a German
keyboard. Sun servers will interpret pressing the
Y
key on a German keyboard as pressing the
Z
key
when the US keyboard country code is used.
The Keyboard dialog box enables you to send a different keyboard country code than the default
US setting. The specified country code is sent to all target devices attached to the DSR switches
when they are powered up or rebooted and the new code is stored in the DSRIQ module.
NOTE: If a DSRIQ module is moved to a different target device, the keyboard country code will need to be reset.
See Appendix F for information on emulating certain Sun keys using a PS/2 keyboard and special
considerations for Japanese and Korean Sun USB keyboards.
NOTE: Only local users can view or change keyboard country code settings.
