Greetings,
I have the answer to the Raritan and PCXAL question.
Many thanks to Mike Slaven from Raritan. Here is the
answer:
Although I'm not in Tech Support, I think I have the
answer for you.
Since
the keyboard you are using (PCXAL) is a very old one,
you will need to
buy
one of our Guardian products for each computer running
Unix. Part
number is
AKMEk. List price is $85. I would also recommend
that you buy a DC
power
adapter for the CompuSwitch (we sell them for $20, but
you can probably
get
one at Radio Shack).
Sorry if this isn't the quick fix you were looking
for...but with that
set-up, it's the best we can do. If you have any
technical questions,
please don't hesitate to call our Technical Support
here. They would
be
happy to help you. 800-724-8090.

As such, I am purchasing two of the guardian
converters. I will let everyone know if that solves
the issue.
