look for a scrap keyboard from a R/C robot control...we've got a few hundred left
Can anyone point me at a source of the switch modules used in the normal Fanuc 6M keyboard? I have two duff switch modules in mine. They are a solder in 2 pin afair. Or has anyone (preferably UK but anywhere really!!) got a duff keyboard I could rob the modules from?

Which keyboard do you have?
The CRT/MDI is comprised of a A20B-0007-0030 MDI board and keyboard of a A20B-0007-0440 through -0449 number, depending on if you have one of the 6's with the silver metal panel or the black one, or a General Numeric 6. Some of the actual keyboards are a FUJI part number.. and there appear to be different keyboards for M and T controls.
The standard is a -0445 keyboard.
And on the -0030 MDI board there is a terminator attached to CLX. See the attach photo.
The actual keyboard bears the number A20B-1000-0131-01. The key switch modules mounted on it are marked up Omron B2R and are simple two pin modules that push though a punched frame and are then soldered to the pcb. Needless to say no trace of them on the Omron web site. I only need a few of the actual modules to repair the keyboard.
