only (that mean I can't use sun keybroad), what kind of command i should
use for the procedure to login to single user mode?
Your help is appreciate.

I don't know, but on the Cybex KVM here, I can first press Scroll-Lock (or
whatever that's called on US keyboards - it's "Rollen" on my keyboard and
is two keys right of F12), then press F1+A together.

That would be Scroll-Lock then:
[F9][F10][F11][F12] [Prt Scr/Sys Rq][Scroll Lock][Pause/Break]
