If the terminal you are talking about wants a PS-2 keyboard, as my VT501 does, you need a protocol translator. It would essentially be the reverse of the LK201 emulator for PS-2 keyboards I released a while back, and possibly the same board could be used with a rather different program running on it.

Thanks. That's a crazy high price for what "untested, for parts" with a thick coat of dirt. I find a conventional PC layout good enough for what I need.
