KBMODE(ADM)                        UNIX System V



     Name
          kbmode - set keyboard mode or test keyboard support


     Syntax
          /etc/kbmode command [ file ]


     Description
          This command  can  be  used  to  determine  if  your  system
          keyboard  supports  AT  mode.  If  it does, this utility can
          change the keyboard  mode  in  between  AT  mode  and  PC/XT
          compatibility mode.

          If the file argument is specified, it should be a tty device
          of one of the multiscreens of the keyboard's group.

          Valid commands are:

               test - determine if keyboard supports AT mode

               at   - set keyboard to AT mode

               xt   - set keyboard to PC/XT compatibility mode


     Notes
          Some keyboards look like AT keyboard but do not  support  AT
          mode.  Setting  such  a  keyboard  to AT mode will render it
          useless, unless it can  be  set  to  XT  mode  from  another
          (serial) terminal.

          Santa Cruz Operation.
