Information in this document has been carefully checked for accuracy; however, no guarantee is given
to the correctness of the contents. The information in this document is subject to change without notice.
We are not liable for any injury or loss that results from the use of this equipment.

Safety Instructions

 Unplug equipment before cleaning. Don’t use liquid or spray detergent; use a moist cloth.
 Keep equipment away from excessive humidity and heat. Preferably, keep it in an air-conditioned

environment with temperatures not exceeding 40° Cel sius (104° Fahrenheit).

 If you don’t intend on using the equipment for a long time, disconnect it from the power outlet to

prevent being damaged by transient over-voltage.

 Keep all liquids away from the equipment to minimize the risk of accidental spillage. Liquid spilled

on to the power supply or on other hardware may cause damage, fire or electrical shock.

 Only qualified service personnel should open the chassis. Opening it yourself could damage the

equipment and invalidate its warranty.

 If any part of the equipment becomes damaged or stops functioning, have it checked by qualified

service personnel.

 Re-position or relocate the receiving antenna.

Chapter 5

P.29

For RKDS-KVM-20 & WRKDS-KVM-19 series

1. How can I adjust the monitor resolution to 1152 x 900 for SUN Micro system ?

The LS solution LCD keyboard drawer will automatically detect the 1152 x 900 resolution, so no user configuration should
be necessary.

2. How do I adjust the resolution in MS Windows operation system?

To change monitor resolution, click Start -> Control Panel -> Display. Select Setting tab to adjust the monitor resolution in
Desktop Area. The available resolutions, "640 x 480", "800 x 600", "1024 x 768", "1152 x 864", "1280 x 1024", are deter­mined by the display card in your computer.

3. The Stop-A hot key is not work in Trusted Solaris

The keyboard combination Stop-A (L1-A) is not available in Trusted Solaris by default. The security administrator can
change this.

4. Is interference signal appeared on LCD normal when shutting down the computer ?

In rare cases, interference may appear on the monitor. This may be caused by signal rate of VGA card and is considered
normal. The image quality can be improved by adjusting the phase or pixel rate automatically or manually.
