This item determines how quickly repeated keystrokes are sent to the attached IBM
PC compatible CPUs when a key on the shared keyboard is held down. To change
the typematic rate, press [Enter] while “Typematic rate” is highlighted. An “Input
new value” box appears. Use the shared keyboard’s number keys to input a new
“rate value” from 0 to 31 and hit [Enter]. (This rate value corresponds to a certain
number of keystrokes per second, as shown in Table 3-1 on the next page.) The
input box disappears and the new setting appears in the “Typematic rate” field.
The ServSwitch Ultra does not support the typematic function for Apple and
Sun CPUs, so this option is not available on Apple only and Sun only models.
