The three standard keyboards are offered. The 102 key keyboard is a PC
keyboard with 24 function keys. The 104 key is a full, typewriter keyboard
with 24 function keys and no numeric pad. The 122 is a full, typewriter
keyboard with 24 function keys and a numeric pad. A fourth keyboard (Data
Entry configuration based on a 104 key keyboard) is offered on the A40 and
B40 display stations. Each keyboard is bundled with a display, so the
second digit of the model number indicates which keyboard is in the bundle.
The keyboard is waterproof and can be modified in setup mode. The keycaps
can be removed and replaced for specific applications.

The L series features a light pen. The D, E, and L series devices support

special, keyed connector with a coaxial attachment at one end and an RJ11 on
the other.
