When moving from the 122-key layout to a standard PC keyboard, there are over 30 new key combinations to be learned to perform the same tasks performed with a single keystroke on a Twinax terminal. This lack of familiarity can produce a big loss in production and excess errors that would not be occurring if the user had their old, familiar keyboard.

With the PCKB122-5250P or PCKB122-5250U 5250-Style 122-key keyboards, there is virtually no retraining when moving users from the old Twinax terminals to new Ethernet connected devices, whether it be a PC or Thin Client Terminal. The user will have the same layout and heavy duty keystroke feel as on the terminals being replaced. No need to learn the new key combinations a standard PC keyboard would require.

These "clicky" keyboards are mechanical keyboards using an IBM designed key mechanism referred to as "buckling spring" (illustration at right).

Advantages

This keyboard works perfectly in both the PC and Thin Client environments.

Any keys that have different functions are labeled with both functions.  Standard PC key functions are labeled in black just like on a PC Keyboard. Any 5250 key functions that are different from the standard PC function are labeled in blue. 

The image at right is a portion of the 5250 keyboard and shows a number of the 5250 keys only the 122-key keyboards have such as F13 thru F24, New Line, Field Exit,  Enter, Rule, etc.  This keyboard also has keys such as Insert, SysReq, Erinp and others
