NTI UNIMUX SERIES USB KVM SWITCH

KEYBOARD FEATURES 

 

The keyboard configuration of each CPU is saved in the UNIMUX.  For example, if the CPU attached to Port 2 had CAPS LOCK 
and NUM LOCK selected the last time that CPU was accessed, then they will automatically be set when that CPU is accessed 
again.  

 

Keyboard-To-Computer Translation   

 
The UNIMUX enables a mixture of otherwise incompatible peripheral computer components to be connected together.  This is 
accomplished by performing keyboard-to-computer translations automatically (i.e. translate a MAC keyboard and mouse to a 
Windows type CPU). The chart below shows the capabilities of devices controlling certain CPU types.
