Keyboards

The “PC-style” keyboards, the PC – US (104-key) and the PC – Int’l (105-key), are similar in style and feature a number of key groups.

The alphanumeric keypad is the main typewriter keypad, while the function key group lies along the top of the keyboard and can be programmed locally or downloaded from the host. The numeric keypad is the calculator-style set of keys on the right-hand side of the keyboard, used to enter numeric data.
