Kaypro keyboard cable pinout - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

the problem is that a regular modular handset cord is a smaller gauge wire than what came
with the Kaypro. You may be able to get away with it, but the current draw of the keyboard
is a bit much for the regular cord and may not be reliable.

Can an ordinary modular handset cord be used for a keyboard cable on a
Kaypro?  I forget if one can be used as-is or if one plug needs to be
attached upside down.
