As I recall, some of you out there have Northgate Omnikey keyboards. I just
aquired one, and would like to try it out on my MM/1. This thing has eight
dip switches under a little flap with the Onmikey lable on it. Currently,
all are off. There is also an orange button under there. On the back, it
does mention that it is version 7.03. I got it for free, and am not sure
that it works. I did try hooking it up, but couldn't get anything much out
of it. When I pressed a key, I would see the cursor flash but nothing else
would happen. After a few seconds of this, the computer reset so I unhooked
it.
If anyone can tell me anything that will help me with this thing, I would
apreciate it.
