Chapter 6: USB Profiles

CIM Compatibility
In order to make use of USB profiles, you must use a virtual media CIM
with updated firmware. For a list of virtual media CIMs, see Supported
Computer Interface Module (CIMs) Specifications (on page 289).
A CIM that has not had its firmware upgraded supports a broad range of
configurations (keyboard, mouse, CD-ROM, and removable drive), but
will not be able to make use of profiles optimized for particular target
configurations. Given this, existing CIMs should be upgraded with latest
firmware in order to access USB profiles.
Until existing CIMs are upgraded, they will be able to provide
functionality equivalent to the ‘Generic’ USB profile.
CIM firmware is automatically upgraded during a firmware upgrade, but
CIMs that have not had their firmware upgraded can be upgraded as
described in Upgrading CIMs (on page 245).
Available USB Profiles
The current release of the KX II comes with the selection of USB profiles
described in the following table. New profiles are included with each
firmware upgrade provided by Raritan. As new profiles are added, they
will be documented in the help.
