`
`IBM ENHANCED KEYBOARD FOR THE PERSONAL COMPUTER
`The Enhanced Keyboard represents an advance in keyboard design for
`the IBM Personal Computer family. It is designed to meet the needs
`of the personal computer user, the office system user, and the user
`that communicates and interacts with larger computer systems.
`This keyboard is designed to conform to ISO standards.
`The Enhanced Keyboard is provided in a 101 key version for the U.S.
`user and 102 key versions for the European users.
`Both versions are recappable, as detailed in Highlights, so the key
`tops may be changed for applications requiring special keys.
`It is designed to be used with the PC Personal Computer AT Expanded
`and with the Personal Computer XT 'S' models and is not supported
`on othe IBM System Units. IBM provides no guarantee that it will
`work in conjunction with other system units.
`The keyboard is attached to the system unit with a nine foot
`pluggable coiled cable, permitting the computers adaptation to a
`variety of workspace configurations. The Keyboard height can be
`adjusted to two different positions for typing comfort. With an
`adjustable typing angle it offers commonly used data and word
`processing functions, along with separate numeric functions and
`cursor keypads.
`The keyboard layout can be divided into four (4) sections:
`1. Typing Section
`2. Numeric Pad
`3. Cursor/Screen Controls
`4. Function Keys
`The 101 key U.S. keyboard and the 102 key European keyboards differ
`only in the typing section of the keyboard. The U.S. keyboard is
`arranged similar to the Selectric (TM) keyboard layout but with 47
`graphic character keys. The tab, capslock, shift, enter, and
`backspace keys have a larger striking area and are located in their
`familiar Selectric (TM) locations. One control (Ctrl) and one
`alternate (Alt) key is placed on each side of the space bar. The
`typing section and the numeric pad have home row identifiers for

`
`the touch typist.
`The typing section for the European keyboard has a layout which
`meets the International Standards Organization (ISO) standard. It
`has 48 graphic character keys and a vertical enter key. An
`alternate graphic (AltGr) key on the right side of the space bar
`provides additional graphic characters.
`The cursor and screen control keys have been separated from the
`numeric pad and therefore the numeric pad can be dedicated to
`numeric input. A division sign key has been added to the numeric
`pad so that the four arithmetic operators as well as an additional
`enter key may be easily accessed. Like the current Personal
`Computer keyboards, the numeric pad may also be used for cursor and
`screen control when not in numlock mode.
`The cursor control keys are arranged in the inverted T arrangement.
`Insert, delete, home, end, page up and page down keys are separated
`from the numeric pad and located above the dedicated cursor control
`keys.
`The function keys are located across the top of the keyboard spaced
`in groups of four. The escape key (ESC) is isolated at the upper
`left of the keyboard. Two additional function keys are provided
`(F11 and F12) for a total of twelve. Dedicated Print Screen/SysRq,
`Scroll Lock, and Pause/Break keys are provided for commonly used
`functions.
`Indicator lights, located at the upper right corner of the Keyboard
`(not in the keyboard for the Personal Computer XT 'S' models),
`indicate the status of the Num lock, Caps lock and Scroll lock
`keys.
`A microprocessor in the keyboard handles the system unit interface
`protocol, scan code generation and command processing.
`HIGHLIGHTS
`o 101 Key U.S.and Israel Version ; 102 Key WTC Versions
`o Recappable keytop capability (93 unit size keys, plus four one
` and a half sized keys : Alt, AltGr, Ctrl's)
`o Selectric (TM) Typing Section for U.S. Version

`SPECIAL CHARACTERS
`Most micro computers have different internal code structures from
`those used in mainframe computers. The IBM Personal Computer uses

`
`an internal ASCII based code structure as opposed to an EBCDIC
`internal code which is used in IBM host computers.
`To improve the capability of the IBM Personal Computer to
`communicate with interconnected IBM systems, including mainframes,
`IBM has now restructured the user interface to accomodate these
`differences. This has resulted in an inconsistency in
`representation of the unbroken vertical bar special character. On
`certain country keyboards when the key showing an unbroken vertical
`bar is depressed a broken vertical bar is displayed. (Note,
`however, that where appropriate communications software is in use
`the unbroken vertical bar is correctly transmitted.)
`Users with keyboards exhibiting this inconsistency who wish, for
`cosmetic reasons, to change the keytop engraved with an unbroken
`vertical bar to one with an engraving of a broken vertical bar may
`obtain a replacement keycap at no charge from the party providing
`this keyboard (the IBM Authorized Dealer or the IBM Branch Office).
`Details about ordering them are contained in a separate announcment
`letter.
