Then again, it could be a problem of having the wrong
keyboard. I
bought this terminal and keyboard as a set, but the keyboard PN is
1389260. A quick search says that one belongs with a 3180 terminal,
which are for System/36 or AS/400's.
No...I have a 3180 here; it's a coax-interfaced terminal, and it's
currently running on my 3174. It's not an AS/400 or S/36 device.
From my notes, I've seen 3180s configured with 1389262 and 6110345
keyboards, and 3179s configured with 1386887 and 1389160 keyboards.
I've physically moved and used my 1389160 keyboard between my 3180 and
my 3179.
Many of those keyboards are interchangeable between terminal types,
at least within the mainframe family...I don't know about the AS/400 or
S/36 twinax terminals.
