Tecra A8: external keyboard connected to the serial port: the necessary specific configurations?

Hello
I want to share a monitor and an external keyboard with Tecra A8 and a desktop computer. To do this, I bought a switch 2-port Linksys where I plugged the external monitor and a keyboard. With the monitor without problem because there is a specific port for this. However my Tecra has only 3 USB ports and a serial port 6-pin where I connected (with a 6-pin Mini DIN adapter) on the keyboard. When I turn on the screen it's ok, but the keyboard (I also tried a mouse) does not work. Do I need a specific configuration on the serial port to accept the external keyboard? If so, what commands do I need on the XP operating system?
Thank you
Luis

RGB (monitor) port used to connect the external monitor.
If you want to connect the external keyboard, you have to use the USB ports.
Additional legacy USB emulation must be enabled for the keyboard.
These settings you can change in the Toshiba HWSetup under control panel.

If you connect multiple devices to the switch USB (hub) Please be sure that the USB hub using external power.
A low power USB could be a reason for the external USB device failure.

  • Tecra A6 - external mouse connected to USB erraticly port rolls

    I have a new Tecra A6 with Windows XP SP2 running on it. The touchpad works fine, but if I use an external mouse connected to a USB port, the scroll wheel scrolls erracticly - jump an additional 6 to 10 lines every now and then, it's extremely irritating. Problem is there little matter which USB port I use.

    The mouse is a new Logitech optical mouse. Have also tried it with a Microsoft Intellipoint mouse and a generic without brand name. In each case, I had the same problem.

    I've updated the drivers - and turned off the touchpad (thought may have been a conflict), but the problem persists.

    Any suggestions on where I should look for a popular solution.

    Hello

    When you use an external mouse I recommend you disable the internal touchpad by using the FN + F9 key combination. I do the same and there is no problem at all.

  • Time Machine backup to external drive connected to the TimeCapsule

    I have a 3 TB TimeCapsule, that contains the my iMac TimeMachine backup. So far so good.

    Now, I would like to connect an external drive to the TimeCapsule via the USB port to allow access to this drive of my iMac as well as other computers on my network. I would like to than the external to include in my Time Machine backup drive. Is it possible - by accepting that the backup of obviously only runs when the Mac is on? If this isn't the case, other methods of backup to an external drive, connected to the TimeCapsule, may be recommended?

    You can do it. Time Machine it will support up to a separate folder on your backup disk. Don't forget to remove it from the exclusions list in Time Machine preferences. I don't know if others cannot see the drive connected to your computer is turned off. They may be able to mount the drive on their computer as you do on yours. Try it because I could be wrong on this matter.

  • Change of keyboard USB external Apple connected to the Macbook Pro

    Dear ladies and gentlemen,

    I need your help. I have a MacBook Pro running the last Sierra 17 "MacOS. I bought a 27 "Thunderbolt display and wanted to use a full external keyboard USB Apple (with the help of the digital keys). I have connected to the screen "USB port, closed down the internal screen MacBook... magic happened... keyboard poped office to the top of the screen external AND external full resolution was working properly..." Unfortunately only for 1-2 minutes, then the layout changed back irreversible in a layout resembling the layout if I would press "alt". Only way I could "resolve" to disconnect the keyboard USB plug and then plug again... but after 1-2 minutes did the same thing...

    I tried to plug the USB plug into the MacBook Pro directly, but the same thing happened...

    I am so unhappy that I can't use correctly the full length external Apple keyboard, large... Any hint/resolution?

    Thank you for your help in advance,

    Péter

    System Preferences > keyboard > Input Sources > [√] see Input menu in the menu bar

    ... then the menu icon before, choose «Show Keyboard Viewer»

    Now, look at the chart of the keyboard that appears on the screen. If the Alt/Option key is stuck, the key will be gray, as if it is held down. If you press it again, he himself is not?

  • Tecra M3: Failed to connect to the double monitors w / Advanced Port Replicator III

    I use a Tecra M3 I put it in place for an III Advanced Port Replicator and I can't dual display to work properly. I have a monitor connected to the DVI port and then another connected to the VGA port. It seems that the laptop is the 1 view and can get only one monitor to work. How can I get the two external monitors to work?

    Thank you
    MBorchardt

    Hello

    In my opinion, you can use a single external screen because you can choose between analog display, the TV and digital flat screen. As far as I know, you can use the FN + F5 keys to change between display devices and can only be set to an external TV or CRT and LCD monitor internal. But not to external displays.
    In addition, I propose to refer to External monitor in the manual which is preinstalled on this device.

    Good bye

  • View internal, external direct connection in the tunnel?

    Today we use XP virtual machines with view 4.0.1 only internal direct connect (need this to our Sun's rays). But now, we want to use our XP virtual machines to internal direct connect and externally by tunnel via the SSL protocol. What do we have to do for that?

    My idea is to install a server security in the demilitarized zone and a new second login view without direct connect server, is the right way?

    If so, we can allow the same VM XP for internal and external direct connection in tunnel?

    That's how we have our configuration of the environment.  You can configure the type of connection to the server by going to the page view Admin, configuration, servers.

    Hello

    Eventually, the software that controls the serial port or the device connected to the serial port is not fully compatible with Win 7.
    I think that this should be checked first.
    Maybe one of you should look for the Special Forum of the manufacturer of the software for more details

  • vCAC 5.2 external integration with vCD. The necessary proxy configuration?

    Hello.

    I have a DEM - W talk to Internet through web proxy.

    The end point of Amazon EC2, web proxy was part of the configuration and works very well.

    My end point for external vCloud Director platform does not, but...

    Both connections are the same dem - W.

    Error message:

    Workflow "vCloudEndpointDataCollection" failed with the following exception:

    System.ArgumentException: unable to connect to vCloud serverUrl: https:// < correct url >, username: correct username >, org: correct org > please check the credentials and endpoint information.

    Should I specify the web proxy for this endpoint?

    How?

    He feels not good specify the web proxy for DynamicOps.DEM.exe.config basicHTTPBinding.

    Then, all local communications would go through the proxy as well, right?

    Seeing the basicHttpBinding that the DynamicOps.DEM.exe.config had the parameter useDefaultWebProxy = "true", I realized something...

    Even with the set for my admin user and the WinHTTP proxy config, it was not established for the service account used by the DEM - W.

    Connected as a service account, update proxy config and...

    The question is: why these two endpoints (EC2 & vCD) points are treated so differently by the same DEM - W?

  • WRT160N v3: unable to connect to the page web configuration of the router with Firefox or IE

    Whenever I try to connect to my router's admin page, I get "the connection to the server was reset while the page is loading."  This happens with FIrefox 11 and started when I upgraded to 8 or 9.  A machine running FF 3.6 does not have this problem; I get right in.  Words IE 9 is "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" (after complaining about the certificate has expired).

    I ran Wireshark to see if I could learn something, but everything that I could understand was:

    https handshake was OK.

    First TLS packet is received by the router, which then immediately issues a reset and the connection is interrupted.  I don't know why.

    Has anyone seen this? or I have a setup that is screwed to the top (or router)?

    Then I did a full-on reset. I had tried to get in the Mode of administration, following an article in the FAQ, but the web page came in normal mode, default 192.168.1.1. From there on, I WAS able to make the success of downloading the new firmware from 2010 (v3.0.03). Unfortunately, once I've reconfigured the box to a similar to the previous configuration, I have the same problem: connection to https://10.244.122.1 of Firefox 3.6 works; 12 Firefox (now), it will fail, get the error "reset while page is loading". My last try will just disable the https - I just discovered where I can - and see if it will work. Because it's only on my home network, if traffic to the configuration page is not encrypted it really doesn't matter that much. (I had previously determined using Wireshark happened to reset during the TLS negotiation after the HTTPS had finished). And hell, that worked. So my problem is not resolved, but it is bypassed and I'll mark it closed.,.

  • WRT54G V8 cannot connect to the web-based configuration page?

    Earlier, I reset my router and was able to use 192.168.1.1 to visit the configuration page based on the web while trying to restore a home network, now that I have a new computer using Windows 7 that can not use the easylink advisor. I was able to get on the page update my SSID and WEP key. But when my wireless devices were still having problems to you connect to the internet, I tried to go back to the page and found that I can't seem to connect, even if my office is able to connect to other websites very well.

    Anyone know what I can do wrong? I use Verizon DSL. I was able to ping to the router and all tests have shown that it was connected fine, but I still can't get on the configuration page and my laptop can't connect to the network. I tried to reset the router again and still nothing. And Yes, I went through several cycles of power. I have also tried to move if the network card on my computer, but the computer said it was impossible to create a card for him, although at the time I had listed as a home network.

    Wireless on 192.168.1.1 connections often fail.  Using the router configuration pages, always use a computer that is connected to the WRT54G.

    If the above does not solve your problem, so here are my other tips to see the router configuration pages:

    You don't need an Internet connection. 'web Pages' of the router are integrated into the router.
    Use Internet Explorer, it usually works.
    JavaScript must be enabled.
    Use a computer that is connected to the router.
    In the non-working computer, temporarily disable your firewall software.

    Point your browser to 192.168.1.1, and then connect to your router. Your username must be left blank. Your password is "admin" (without the quotes), unless you changed it.

    If you use Zone Alarm, do a right-click on the ZA icon in the taskbar (bottom right of screen) then click on "Shutdown ZoneAlarm" and see if that solves your problem. If this does not work, try the following with Zone Alarm: open the control center ZAISS, go to privacy, then temporarily disable Ad Blocking and Cookie Control and see if it solves your problem.

    Some Zone Alarm users reported that the addition of 192.168.1.1 to their address list "of trust" solved the problem. This trick can also work with other firewalls.

    If you use Noton Internet Security with the add-on Pack, don't forget to disable the blocker and ad blocker. Some users have reported that they needed to uninstall all Norton Add-on Pack.

    If you can not get anything to 192.168.1.1 then perhaps this is not the address of the router. Go to 'Start' > all programs > Accessories > command prompt.
    A black DOS window will appear. Type "ipconfig" (with no quotes), and press the Enter key. Look at the "default gateway". It is 192.168.1.1? Point your browser to the 'default gateway', can connect you to your router.

    If the above fails, unplug your modem router, then try again. If it solves your problem, then you probably a "modem-router" rather than a regular modem. A report with this problem and also specify the brand and exact model of your modem (not router) number.

    If all above fails them, turn off your entire system, unplug it from the wall, wait a minute, then lights up, then try again.

    If all the above tips fail, then reset the default router: power down the router and unplug all the wires. Wait a minute. Switch on the router, let it fully boot (1-2 minutes), then press and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release the button and allow the router to reset and restart (2-3 minutes). Turn off the router. Wait a minute. To connect to a computer, cable, a router's LAN port. Initialize the system.  The router should work, but you will need to configure your router again from scratch.  If you have saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.

    If you still have problems, then you must download and install (or reinstall) the latest firmware for your router. After the update of the firmware, you must reset the default router, and then configure the router again from scratch. If you have saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.

  • How to set 1280 x 800 on external monitor connected to the Tecra M2V by APR3?

    Hello

    I have a Tecra M2v (with intel Extreme Graphics 2) and recently got an Advanced Port Replicator III and a 15.4 "WXGA LCD display. According to the specifications of the laptop (LINK to DL the PDF specsheet) it will support an external monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 800, but I don't know how to operate. The only resolutions that I can find are for 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024.

    I installed the latest version of the bios (v 1.30) and have tried different drivers of intel and can not get the wide screen resolutions to appear. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this to work?

    Hello Randy

    Are you sure that your external LCD can manage with a resolution of 1280 x 800? You attempted to set this resolution without Advanced Port Replicator III?
