B Terminal Emulation Keys (E 40 and

E 45 only)

When keyboard commands are redirected to the NetServer's keyboard from a

remote console, keystrokes generated on a generic terminal keyboard may not be

able to control all the NetServer's keyboard keys. When there is no direct

mapping between the remote keyboard and the NetServer keyboard, special keys

on the NetServer keyboard are emulated using character strings.

This is why keys such as ESC and Home must be emulated in the form of ANSI

escape sequences to access HP NetServer E 40 and E 45 functions remotely. If

you choose not to use pcANYWHERE32 (which has pre-defined emulation keys),

you will need to program macro keys to correspond to the Remote Console

Redirection escape sequences.

PC keystrokes that have no ASCII/ANSI terminal equivalents, but are recognized

by the HP NetServer E 40 and E 45 BIOS, can only be used after you have logged

onto the NetServer. These BIOS specific commands are initiated by pressing Alt-

0 (zero) if the terminal has been set up correctly.

Most terminal emulation software permits the mapping of special keys to

character strings. If this is not true of the software you are using, you must send

strings manually. The tables below provide a guide to keyboard emulation, both

with keyboard combinations (where keys are held down together) and keystroke

sequences (where a string of keystrokes is entered).
