Keypads
The TA59 keyboard differs from standard PC keyboards by virtue of its
multiple function key concept. This concept permits a flexible key layout, i.e.
double or quadruple keys can be used on the TA59. This is possible in the
following keypads:
n
In the upper row of function keys;
n
In the keypad to the right of the numeric keypad.
Only one key code is transmitted by each multiple key.
Only one key code is generated by each double or quadruple key. Different
key codes can be set for the multiple keys by rotating the key caps. These
caps have a guide cylinder that is shifted when the cap is rotated, resulting
in different key codes. This will lead to problems if not observed
(see page 7).
Incorrect key caps on the TA59 keyboard can be changed on the spot.
Dummy caps can also be used. The keyboard is divided into 5 keypads:
n
Alphanumeric keypad keys
n
Function key keypad 1
n
Numeric keypad
n
Function key keypad 2
n
Function key keypad 3
