When you want to…

change user-specific operating parameters.
([F5], [F6], and [F7] are usable by administrators only.)

View the Information Menu (see
Section 5
) in order to see the
version numbers of the Summit’s firmware and hardware, the
number of accessible Base Units, the total number of accessible
computers, etc.
[F9]
Log out of the Summit system (logs user out and causes the login
screen to be displayed).
[Shift] + [F9]
If any OSUI screen is displayed:
Disconnect yourself from the active
channel without logging out.
[F10]
If the administrator has set “Display All Computers” to “Yes” and the
Selection Menu is sorted by channel ID:
Toggle the display of all
channels (including inaccessible ones) on or off.
[F12]
If you are at the Selection Menu:
Toggle the Selection Menu between
sorting the channel entries by name or by channel ID.
[Esc]
Exit the OSUI (returns user to the Selection Menu, or to the login
screen when no channel is selected).
NOTES
If a user does not have administrator privileges, then they will see
functions [F5], [F6], and [F7] displayed in red in the Help Menu,
indicating that these functions aren’t available to them.
If a system administrator has set Display All Computers to “No,”
then [F10] will be displayed in red in the Help Menu for all users,
indicating that this function is not available (even for administrators).
We recommend that you use a Sun keyboard if there are any Sun
CPUs in your system; if you must control Sun CPUs with a PS/2
keyboard, refer to
Appendix H
of the Base Unit manual for how to
produce a Sun keyboard’s special characters.
