Attaching an External Keyboard

The PPT 4300-SOE terminal has a port for connecting a low power 
PS/2-AT keyboard. See page 4 for the location of the External 
Keyboard port. Do not use a keyboard that has not been approved

Keyboard port. The terminal’s keypad remains active while the 
external keyboard is attached.
