60-key PS/2 Keyboard
The 60-key PS/2 keyboard is part number
160068-0001
(see decal on back of key-
board).
An adapter cable is required to attach this keyboard to the Thor VM3. See
for details.
The 60-key keyboard has 101 keyboard functions, including a numeric keyboard pad.
Key Maps
The 60-key keyboard supports all 101 keyboard functions. However, because the key-
board only has 60 keys, all functions are not visible (or printed on the keyboard). There-
fore the Thor VM3 keyboard supports what is called hidden keys - keys that are
accessible but not visible on the keyboard.
On standard keyboards many keys are found in the Alphanumeric section as well as on
the Numeric keypad (i.e. the 1 key is found on the numeric keypad and above the alpha
characters on standard keyboards). However these keys send distinctly different scan
codes when the keys are pressed. The default codes for the Thor VM3 number keys cor-
respond to the numeric keypad on standard keyboards. In order to duplicate the codes
sent when the alphanumeric key is pressed, the hidden keystroke must be used.
