A typical keyboard has only 101 keys (104 keys on a Windows keyboard), in sharp contrast to the 122 keys that were standard in the conventional midrange environment. For users of traditional non-programmable terminals who were used to the full set of 122 keys, moving to a PC or Thin Client can mean a big loss in production. Up to 36 new key combinations are required to perform tasks previously performed with single keystrokes on the traditional 122 key keyboards.
While the 122-key keyboard for PCs are nothing new, those keyboards required operating system-specific software drivers. Those software drivers are not just expensive but are also problematic, such as when a Terminal Server or Citrix implementation is used.
Although industry-standard PC/5250 122-key keyboards work well enough with a PC or Thin Client running embedded 5250-emulation software, they are not fully functional when the user attaches to Windows Terminal Server or Citrix. The keyboard, in these instances, functions only as a regular PC keyboard; typically the upper function keys do not work. The new BOSaNOVA 122-key keyboard, however, works perfectly in both PC and Thin Client
environments.
-
Works flawlessly with both embedded and Citrix or Windows Terminal Server applications, since it also emulates 101-key keyboards
-
The BOSâNOVA keyboard is driverless, enabling it to integrate smoothly into any operating system environment
-
Simple keyboard map files are available for import to industry-standard TN5250e emulations, such as IBM Client Access and BOSâNOVA TCP/IP
-
Map files can be modified to work with any manufacturer's thin client
