POWER UP
If the USB-SUN-R or USB-PS2-R has been connected to a CPU, power up the CPU. The CPU will boot up normally whether a
USB keyboard and mouse are attached to the UNIMUX switch or not.
Exception: If a USB Sun foreign keyboard is being used, it must be connected before the CPU is powered up in order to
communicate the country code to the CPU.
KEY EQUIVALENTS
Using the chart below, find the character needed to be typed on the CPU, then follow the row across for the equivalent on the
keyboard being used. See Fig. 9 on page 9 for reference.
