IBM Terminals
Several models of IBM terminals support more than one type of keyboard.
Some key definitions depend on the keyboard, while others are the same
for all keyboards.
show the layouts of two IBM-terminal
keyboards.
To encode a key on your keyboard, find the key in the appropriate figure.
Keys that are common to both keyboards appear with their normal labels;
see Table 8 for the Code 39 and ASCII equivalents for these keys. Key-
board-specific keys in the figures begin with an X (for example, X11) or
have a mnemonic label; to encode those keys, see Table 13.

NOTE
Mnemonic keys (XA)–(XF) are “on/off” keys. For example, to encode an
Alt+B
keystroke combination, you need to turn
Alt
on by entering (XA1) before the
B
and then turn it off afterward with (XA0).
