Changing the scancode set of PS/2 keyboards
If you press a key at the PS/2 keyboard, the keyboard processor sends a data packet
that is called scan code. The two common scancode sets (sets 2 and 3) contain differ-
ent scancodes.
In the default configuration, the KVM extender interprets any entry made at the
PS/2 keyboard with the scancode set 2.
Use the scancode set 3 if you cannot enter the pipe “|” or the arrow keys do not
work as expected.
