CHAPTER 3: Installation and Preconfiguration
Table 3-1. Keyboard mapping by the Matrix ServSwitch.
Generally, the Matrix ServSwitch interprets keys by their positions on the keyboard, so any keys
that occupy more or less the same positions and perform more or less the same functions
across platforms will map one-to-one. However, certain keys available on certain keyboards do
not correspond well or are not available on other types of keyboards, so the Switch maps the
more important of these as shown below. (The Switch does not support Apple keyboards, but
with the proper adapter it will emulate an Apple keyboard to an attached Mac CPU.)
