Odd 122 with AT-style plug
« on: Fri, 01 January 2010, 00:18:48 »

Dirty as all get out.  No promises.  "Made in Mexico" suggests Maxi Switch to me.

Very retro look.
FCC ID (GJK122RX-2) implies Honeywell.

I wonder if they did a PC-Mini thing too?

At the very least, I wonder if they have the internal connector done in the same way that the IBM terminal ones are (5 pin on a 2x3 berg strip).
Current:
IBM: Model M: 1391401, 1386887 Terminal 122 Key 
IBM: Model F: 6110668 Terminal 122 key with Trackpoint and M13 blacks
IBM: Specialty: Wheelwriter 5, Boltmodded.  AT F layout, M technology. 
Lexmark/IBM: M13 Black Trackpoint
NCR:HO150-STD1-01-17 Decision Mate V - The other Gray NCR linear.

It wouldn't need to be since it's already got a normal AT plug (unless you're asking for a different reason than cable swapping)

Someone fire off an email asking if they'd mind opening it up. I won't out of fear of being unhappy with the reply.



Cable swap.  I already have the original 2x3 off my own that terminates in a full sized RJ45 connector(due to a lack of keyboards that I have with proper berg strips).

Oh, nice little setup you've got there.

It's probably a long shot to hope that a non-IBM company did it the same way, but you never know I suppose.

Well, the Bull BTC-based keyboard that acted as a donor terminated in a non-Berg strip connector.

Does it at least feel "somewhat acceptable"?
Unfortunately No. anyway I like those huge letters on the keys. :high5:

Welcome to geekhack.

Where are the DIP switches? Is that a video editing board?
I trolled Geekhack and all I got was an eponymous SPOS.
