(Windows95)
NEC PC-MA10T ( Windows2000,Linux )
USB-PS/2 converter to confirm the operation is only the following.
SMILE SA-BAR2
SANWA
USB-CVPS1
The following USB-PS/2 converter is assumed to be a support off the subject because there is a problem in operation.
Audio Technica ATC-USBPS2
SIGMA PS2USB1BK
3. Feature
The NeXT non-adb keyboard can be connected with PC with the PS/2 port.
I do not think this kind of product to be marketed.
The Fn key like HHK can be used.
Left AlphaLock LED is allocated in CapsLock LED and right AlphaLock LED is allocated in NumLock LED.
The customizing function and the Fn key function are attached as usual. It is possible to change key assign though left command key is assigned Fn key in default.
4. Cabling
The NeXT non-adb keyboard is connected with the Mini-Din5P port of this converter.
Connect the converter to the PS/2 port with Mini-Din6P male - male cable. In Akihabara, it was sold for 300 yen-400 yen ..
5. Customizing of keyboard
It is the same as PS2M0115. Please refer to the manual of PS2M0115.

The address map is as follows.
0x00-0x7F key scancode translation table(NeXT→PS/2)
0x80-0xBF Fn key translation table
0xDA PS/2 RX delay(x100us) ... default 0x05(0.5ms)
0xDB 0...with ten key 1...without ten key
0xDC PS/2 TX delay(x100us) ... default 0x10(1.6ms)
0xDD polling loop delay(x100us) ... default 0x05(0.5ms)
0xDE N/A
0xDF Fn key scancode(PS/2) ... defalut 0x9F(Left Win)
0xE0-0xFF 0-9,A-F key scancode translation table restore data(read only)
7. Explanation
The PS/2 key scancode of S key and G key is 0x1B, and 0x34. The NeXT key scancode of that is 0x3A and 0x3D. If you set value 0x34 at address 0x3A,when the "S" key is pushed, "G" is input.
The scancode of "2" key is 0x1E.The scancode of "F2" key is 0x06.Loog at the value of address 0x9E and 0x9F.
If you set value of address 0xDB to 1,NumLock LED may be turned off at power on.
0xDA, 0xDC, and 0xDD need not change if converter is not unstable.
0xE0-0xFF is read only.If you change the key assigh of 0-9,A-F key, It returns to the initial state according to the timing of the startup of the converter. In a word, an irreversible change cannot be done.
After 5-10 seconds have passed since the converter startup, use the value of 0xDA-0xDF. Moreover, it is not used in "configure mode". In a word, even if the unexpected value is set, it is possible to retrieve.
8. How to use "configure mode"
It is the same as PS2M0115. Please refer to the manual of PS2M0115.
