Wyse WY-50 Ketboard Cable

[kharma]

I have restored a Wyse WY-50 terminal except the keyboard has a cut cable. Anyone have a cable from one of these they might sell? Also need the break key.

So much effort for a beat up Cherry.. is it worth it?

He's restoring the full terminal, not just the keyboard. From what I can read, the Wyse 50 uses an unusual 10-pin DIN connector and I suppose it would not be easy to find the pinout either.

Wyse's keyboards from this era are otherwise sturdy and well made. Some of them have thick double-shot keys in DCS profile even. I would clean that though, and possibly retr0bright it.

@kharma: You'd be looking the F15 keycap. The Break key's keycap is in its position.
I know a lot of these keyboards have been scavenged for keycaps and/or switches.

You're right - gotta put my glasses on!

Oh my bad, I should've read more carefully. That's a very cool project then, and I hope OP posts pics when they're done!
