Keyboard
Mounts - Rack Mount Keyboard with
Displays

where the finger is detected by a matrix of infrared sensors with drift
free technology so they can be used outside, desk top or the factory floor.
There are no nooks and crannies around keys so they can be just washed
off if something is spilled on them. As standard they can be either completely
silent or have an audible response.
Rugged rackmount keyboard that will not wear out, rated at 30,000,000
touches per year. EKI's keyboard detects your finger optically so there
are no moving parts, and no domes to crack... these are not membrane or
mechanical switch keyboards, you can stick a knife in the touch surface
and not affect the life or operation. Keyboard can have permanent, semi-permanent
key text overlays. Industrial keyboard that can I/O dual ascii (rs-232
or rs-422), USB or PS2 codes and sequences of codes. They are sealed so
they can be easily washed off. EKI can make our custom keyboards and keypads

With our keyboards that use PS2 output, there
is no other connections required.

Our keyboards are also compact in size so they can be
used on your lap, stand, or desk. We have models that can be mounted to
a panel or machine. They can be fitted with a touch pad to one side, or
in the middle of the keyboard.

You can have only the keys you want, your name, your colors, your organization's
name, your department, and text (a function name). And Hot Keys, one key
can input a URL, ctrl-C, etc., so if you're using a program that you press
a sequence of keys on a regular basis, those sequences can be programmed
into one key with the function name put on the key position.
Because there are no moving parts they will never wear out.
We also make them in any language. You send us the keys you want
and we'll send you a keyboard.
