Greetings!
Extra
credit question: what is the keyboard code that it delivers
to the terminal to identify itself?
wouldnt that be the normal ENQ code?
Each particular "flavor" of keyboard provides a unique identifier to
the terminal to enable the terminal to adjust to different key layots, etc.
I *assume* one (or more?) of these codes says, in effect, "security
keyboard"
(instead of "Sun style keyboard" or "Nokia layout" or....). However,
it is
possible
that NCD has extended/bastardized the keyboard protocol to implement this
in some other way, entirely.
however, information may be helpful from the NCD X
terminal howto for
linux
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/NCD-X-
Terminal.html
With respect, that's a pretty lightweight document. *Literally* a "How
To"...
"Do this, then this, then this..." like a "quick start guide" -- not a
real
"reference".
It doesn't cover things like the format of the internal NVRAM, types of
interfaces available, running off a PROM-based server, etc.
I've grep'ed all of the NCD material I have available as well as web
searches.
It appears these little details can only be ascertained empirically... I
suspect most
of this information has kippled...
Thanks!
