External Keyboards
The TravelMate 2000's standard keyboard supports all the key functions of the IBM 101/102-key Enhanced
Keyboard layout. In addition, a full-sized keyboard can be connected to the TravelMate 2000 via the
external keyboard connector on the optional 3.5-inch Floppy Drive Unit.
Caution: Do not connect an external keyboard that draws more than 275 mA at +5 V. Texas
Instruments accepts no liability for damage that may be caused either to the keyboard or to the
TravelMate 2000 by connecting a keyboard which exceeds the above current limitation.
The keyboard cable from the external keyboard must have a 6-pin mini-DIN connector.
An IBM PS/2 or compatible keyboard can be used with the TravelMate 2000.
Note: Always turn off the computer before connecting or disconnecting the external keyboard.
