Sometimes on Dell Optiplex GX240 computers with Windows XP, the PS/2 wheel mouse would go out of sync. This has been fixed.

Keys to change between English and Japanese or Korean did not work. This has been fixed.

USB cable 17 and previous were specific to each country for Sun computers. Version 19 of the USB cable derives its Sun international language setting from the Sun keyboard language setting on the Configure System page. In order for this to work, UP18A firmware must be installed. otherwise the US language setting will be used.

For Sun computers Ctrl page up now generates the volume up key and ctrl page down generates the volume down key. These were reversed.

Allows you to send the keys that are present on a Sun keyboard, such as the Stop, Again, and other keys unique to the Sun keyboard, from a PC keyboard. More.

Add full support for all combinations and emulations of PC, Sun, and USB Japanese and Korean keyboards.

Add Sun language field to multi-platform boxes to allow better PC to Sun emulation. Adds auto field to preserve existing configurations.

The sample rate has been increased from 20 samples/sec. to 40 samples/sec which makes smoother mouse movement. This also corrects incorrect operation of devices connected to the mouse port such as extenders or other KVM switches which did not respond to the mouse sample rate. This includes older firmware version of the Crystal View and other Rose KVM switches such as the Vista series.

Adds mode commands 11 and 12 to allow setting the USB-PC and USB-Sun settings on units without OSD. More.

A problem occurs, if you have the keyboard and mouse ports on the board installed in the Compaq server to the Rose switch. When you use the local mode to access the server the mouse works fine. When you log into the server through a browser, the mouse does not work at all. This firmware upgrade fixes the remote mouse not working.

Fix label display routines so that a label time of zero causes no label to be displayed unless Left Control-d is typed, in which case it is displayed for 5 seconds.

Improve compatibility with mouse on various platforms. Mouse would go out of sync on various platforms such as HP LDpro and LXpro. This has been resolved.

Fixed problem with out of sync mouse when expansion unit > 4.

Fixed extra enter key being sent from key repeat when closing CPU select window on Sun CPU's.

Fixed problem with mouse going out of sync when using CrystalView attached to user port. This is only when changing computers from the on-screen display menu.

Add support for forcing sync type on user port. When OSD firmware version 4.4 or greater is installed extra fields appear on the configure overlay - resolution setting. These fields allow you to force the output sync format to be either HV or composite regardless of the input sync. This allows you to use a composite sync only monitor with PCs or a PC monitor with computers producing composite sync such as Suns or UNIX workstations.

Fix problem with upper boards sometimes not being recognized at power up. Randomly, certain units would not recognize the upper boards and you could not switch to these ports.

When switching to a computer on an upper card, sometimes the switching would not occur. Switching to the computer again would work correctly.

The box to box protocol would sometimes not be configured correctly and the mouse would be out of sync. Careful manual configuration would be able to correct the problem. The box is now easier to configure and forgiving of wrong configuration. If a wheel mouse is not used the box does not use any wheel mouse protocol.

This command has been present in previous revisions of the switch. It has been added back in by request to make configuration easier. In particular please note the new settings to configure multi-platform boxes to all Sun or all Apple. This switch product family does not have an all Sun or all Apple member, so this makes configuration for the all Sun or all Apple environment easier.

To save the setting in non-volatile memory, use the keep command by pressing and releasing the left control key and then the K key.

Don't use the numeric keypad for numeric keys or the enter key. To save the setting in non-volatile memory, use the keep command by pressing and releasing the left control key and then the K key.  

To enter the reset computer's mouse command, press and release the left control key, then the O (alphabetic, not zero) key. This command should only be used when the mouse has been lost on NT. If a wheel mouse is used, this will also recover use of the wheel. You can also use this command to change the NT mouse driver from non-wheel to wheel without booting the computer.  

Certain Dell computers such as the XPS R350 and the XPS 450 would fail to have mouse pointers present when booting NT4.0. The mouse will now boot properly on these computers.

Decrease power on time of switch by one second.

Fixed a problem with the main board (ports 1-4) sometimes reporting failures incorrectly on slave boards (ports 5 to 16).

Fixed a problem with using a CPU using a serial mouse connection. The problem occurred on ports above port 4 on PC only configurations.

For multi-platform units, fixed problem with routing non-standard keycodes from keyboards to CPU's that don't match the keyboard type.

Added Ctrl-Tab to keyboard commands. This command allows a KVM switch to pass commands through to switches connected to a CPU port.

For multi-platform units using Sun or Macintosh keyboards prevent the keyboard select box from appearing.

Fixed a problem when changing ports on with Japanese Sun machines using Japanese keyboards.

Fixed a problem with passing PC cursor keys through a KVM switch connected to a port on the switch greater than 4.

Improved NT response to a wheel mouse by adding support for SP3 and SP4 changes made in NT.

Changed default screen saver time to 0 to make disabled the default for the screen saver.

Fixed problem with on screen display occasionally failing to double display height on high resolution displays.

Improve power on detection of OSD during power transients.

Decrease power on time of switch by two seconds.
