Closed CD32 SX1 Keyboard

[z3spacial]

After (mistakenly) thinking a CDTV keyboard would work on my CD32 with SX1 and also having tried a PS2->AT Adaptor to no avail, I throw myself on the community (again)

Does anyone have a keyboard that they KNOW will work on my SX1 or know where I can get one

Cheers.....

I had a PC AT keyboard working with mine (many many years ago, it was brand new) so any should work. Where to get one though... that's tricky. Small computer shops might be able to help but not for certain. Tried eBay?

I have a 5€ USB Keyboard at my SX1 ... PS/2->AT and USB->PS2 Adaptor...

I have a spare AT Keyboard. It doesn't have the Windows Key's though, so I don't know how you will do the Amiga key.

IIRC, any PS2 keyboard should work with the SX1 expansion to your CD32. I used to have one before I sold it and used a couple of different PS2 keyboards with it. I wonder if you damaged the SX1 keyboard interface by plugging the CDTV's keyboard into it?

Every Din Amiga keyboards work with SX1 as well (A2K, A3K, infinitiv keyboard with adaptator...) !

Finally managed to find a PS/2 keyboard that worked through my PS2/AT adapter!!! It was an older one - a Compaq - really heavy, but in good condition.

It looks like PS/2 keyboards are not all created equal!!

Just to update a previous poster - I didn't plug the CDTV keyboard into the CD32 - it doesn't fit - that was the point I was tryint to make lol.


Thanks for all your suggestions - just got lucky on this I guess - All working now!
