Title: [Solved]PS/2 to usb for trackpoiont on M13?
Post by: ag36 on Tue, 05 June 2018, 11:00:52

I am restoring a maxiswitch M13, the keyboards works fine with blue cube but trackpoint don't, does anyone know which converter works?

Thanks.

Edit: solved, keyboard is now near restored just waiting for tracking point caps.

I've used the Belkin F5U119-E adapter with good results. It's a Y-adapter that takes both PS/2 inputs and has a single USB output.

Thanks, but.

Belkin F5U119-E seems to be discontinued :(.
