Keyboard Operating System Platform
The CCXR-17 KVM’s default port configuration is for PC compatible keyboard operating system. If your console
uses a PC compatible keyboard and you have a MAC attached to a port, for example, you can change the port’s
keyboard operating platform configuration so that the PC compatible keyboard emulates the MAC keyboard.
The procedure is as follows:
1. Bring the KVM focus to the port you want to set.
2. Invoke
HSM
3. Press and release the appropriate Function key as follows. After completing the procedure, you
automatically exit HSM.
