3.3  Legend Cards

Each of the 36 user defined keys have a 7/8" square legend area which allows the user to label each key;
a set of legend cards is included. The legend cards are kept clean by inserting them into a 'see through'
pocket underneath the polyester overlay.

To gain access to the pocket in the keyboard overlay, it is necessary to withdraw the keyboard assembly
from the IKB-1000 bezel. To do this, remove the 18, No.6, KEP nuts from the rear of the keyboard backing
plate. The keyboard assembly can now be removed from the bezel.

The three legend card pockets are open at the top edge of the keyboard overlay. After labeling each
legend card, carefully cut it to size and insert it into the pocket from the top down. Assembly of the
keyboard to the bezel is the reverse of removal; take care to align the gasket properly.

3.4  Status LED

The IKB-1000 is provided with a tri-color status LED visible through a hole in the rear cover.
