APPENDIX F: EXTRA KEYBOARD/M OUSE I NFORMATION AND SETTINGS 127Appendix F: Extra Keyboard/Mouse Informationand SettingsEmulating Sun Keys with a PS/2 KeyboardWe recommend that you use a Sun keyboard and mouse at your User Stations if there are any Sunservers in your Paragon system. If you must use a PS/2 keyboard to control a Sun server attachedto your Paragon system, Paragon is able to perform some keyboard emulation. To emulate mostof the special “extra” keys that are present on Sun keyboards but not on PS/2 keyboards, firstpress and hold either Scroll Lock or the combination of Ctrl and Alt; these function aspermanent “Sun keystroke hot keys.” (If Scroll Lock is your OSUI hot key or previous-channelhot key, you will want to use Ctrl + Alt.) Then press the corresponding character on the PS/2keyboard:WHILE PRESSING A CHARACTERHOTKEY, PRESS THIS PS/2KEYBOARD KEY ......

For example,the layout of a French keyboard is different from that of a US English keyboard. The ParagonCIMs enable you to change the keyboard’s layout setting to match your keyboard if you are notusing a US English keyboard (the factory default). Please note that different CIMs come withdifferent keyboard setting methods so you should change your keyboard setting based on theCIMs.
