[Info-vax] 3X-LK463-A2 keyboard and powerterm

[Rich Jordan]

We have a customer who I now have to use a PC sslvpn client to connect to, instead of a site to site tunnel.  That means no more access to their VMS systems from my VAXstation, and so no proper keyboard for editing.

I've got one  3X-LK463-A2 USB VMS keyboard available, and we have an available Powerterm Plus 10.2 license (does VT420 emulation).  I can't find info on their site about using the LK463 with Powerterm.

Has anyone done this?  Before I waste time installing the emulator just to find out it can't use the LK463 directly, it would be nice to know.  If nobody knows then I'll likely give it a try anyway.

I also have an LK450 which I could test on another PC that still has PS2 ports. I've read accounts that indicate that Powerterm will recognize it, but then I'd have to keep that older PC online and available.

Thanks for any info.
