Haas Keyboard Interface.. - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

Has anyone ever wired a qwerty keyboard into a haas? I want to do this, and noticed that on the SKBIF (serial keyboard interface), there is also a 5 pin plug labeled "Keyboard" next to the 24 pin keyboard ribbon cable, but I cannot find any info on this plug. Can technicians plug some sort of test keyboard into this plug? If so, can I buy that test keyboard, or is it an adapter cable? The machine is paid for, and I'm not too worried about breaking it, I have access to a Haas simulator that I can plug into first to make sure it works..

Any help is appreciated..

That is for programming the SKBIF board.

Oh, there is a program port also, with a lot more pins, so I assumed the 5 pin port was for plugging in a test keyboard or something.. Hmm, might have to do this the hard way.
