Using the TE 2000 Keypads
The 243X supports TE 2000 VT100/220/320/340 and ANSI, TE 2000 5250, and
TE 2000 3270. When you order a TE 2000 application, you also receive the appropriate
TE 2000 keypad overlay. TE 2000 keypad overlays let you enter the same keys that you
can enter from a VT/ANSI keyboard, an IBM 5250 keyboard, or an IBM 3270
keyboard.
Like the 39-key function numeric and the 57-key alphanumeric keypad overlays, the TE
2000 keypad overlay lets you enter all the characters printed on or above the keys. For
help, see Typing the Characters Printed on the Keypad on page 1-13. The TE 2000
keypad overlays also come with the same special keys that are on the 39-key function
numeric and the 57-key alphanumeric keypad overlays. For help, see Finding the
Special Keys on page 1-12.
For more help, see the appropriate TE 2000 manual.
