First edition: RCSL No 31-D621.
The original manuscript for this manual was forwarded by Rune
Einersen, September 1980. A number of national graphic character
sets and the subsequent influence on the keyboard layouts have
been defined in the meantime and have been included in the pre-
sent edition.
From an editorial point of view it was felt that the original
manuscript could most properly be hounered if texts and illu-
strations belonging together were placed on left and right pages,
respectively, wherever possible. Hence the necessity of blank
pages and pages containing only minor text parts.

The scope of this manual is to serve as a reference for every
character set and keyboard layout selected for use by terminals,
printers and similar equipment manufactured by RC.
The international standards allow some national variations and
even national standards leave some choice for the manufacturer.
The evolution of computer equipment has given rise to a series of
standards, either almost compatible improvements or completely
incompatible solutions.
The aim of RC is to adapt to the most widely used standard (offi-
cial or de-facto) in order to maintain the highest degree of com-
patibility with equipment from other manufacturers.
For reference to appendix A, sharp-edged brackets are applied,
e.g. 1.
\f
F_1_._2_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _C_h_a_r_a_c_t_e_r_ _S_e_t_s_ 1.2
The character set normally used by RC adheres to the 7-bit cha-
racter set defined by ISO (see 3) and CCITT (see 11) which is
identical to the ASCII set (see 10). For certain applications
other character sets like ISO 8-bit character set or EBCDIC (see
appendix B) have been used; it is, however, outside the scope of
this manual to describe these special character sets.
The ISO 7-bit character set consists of 128 values ranging from 0
to 127. It is pictorially illustrated in 1.2.1 as a frame struc-
ture capable of containing 8 columns of 16 characters.
A character is denoted either as column/row (e.g. 2/0) or by a
character mnemonic (e.g. SP) or by its decimal value (e.g. 32).
The character set consists of:
- the control character set (0-31)
- the graphic character set (33-126)
- the space character (32)
- the delete character (127)
The space character may be regarded as a non-printing graphic
character and is often treated as a graphic character. The delete
character has no graphic representation and no control function
and may therefore be used as a fill character.

Since control functions on terminal equipment do not adhere to
any standard, a conversion is normally inserted between an appli-
cation program and the actual equipment. Therefore, it is neces-
sary to distinguish between four character sets in connection
with normal use of terminals and printers. The character flow is
depicted in 1.3.1 where also the ranges of the character sets are
defined.
The conversion between the character sets takes place somewhere
on the route from the peripheral to the program. The actual place
of the conversion varies with the intelligence of the actual
equipment, e.g. input conversion is done in the RC8000 FE in case
of an RC851, but is done locally in the terminal in case of an
RC852.
The 4 character set ranges are:
A: Keyboard Input.
B: Display Output (identical to Keyboard Echo).
C: Internal Program Input and Output.
D: Printer Output.
The difference between the character sets is explained in chapter
3.

The graphic character set defined by ISO leaves some positions
free for national letters and special-purpose graphic symbols.
Therefore, the graphic character set is described by a b_a_s_i_c_
g_r_a_p_h_i_c_ _c_h_a_r_a_c_t_e_r_ _s_e_t_ which is mandatory to be included in any
actual character set and a r_e_f_e_r_e_n_c_e_ _g_r_a_p_h_i_c_ _c_h_a_r_a_c_t_e_r_ _s_e_t_ which
shall preferably be included in every actual character set used
for RC equipment.
On top of this a number of n_a_t_i_o_n_a_l_ _g_r_a_p_h_i_c_ _c_h_a_r_a_c_t_e_r_ _s_e_t_s_ have
been selected as RC standard.

The basic graphic character set is shown in 2.1.1. It consists of
94 positions, divided into two parts:
- 81 positions which have a fixed graphic character assigned
(if they are used),
- 13 free positions, which may have different graphic cha-
racters assigned in different character sets (these
positions are marked with 1 ).

The RC reference graphic character set has been obtained by
extending the basic graphic character set with 4 characters,
viz.:
# (2/3)
S (2/4)
(5/14)
_ (5/15)
It leaves 9 positions free for national and special variants
divided into three groups:
1 3 positions which should preferably be used for capital
national letters,
2 3 positions which should preferably be used for the
lower-case national letters corresponding to 1 ,
3 3 free positions.

The national variants of the graphic character sets are either
based upon national standards (if they exist) or upon the refer-
ence graphic character set extended with national letters and
filled up to a full 92-character set with appropriate graphic
symbols.
If more than one national standard exist for a given country, the
one which is closest to the reference character set is chosen as
RC Standard.
Special versions of graphic character sets may be selected on
specific customer request, whereas the RC Standard National
variant is chosen as default.

Since there is no national standard in Denmark for graphic
character sets, the RC Standard Danish Character Set is
determined as shown in 2.3.1.1, consisting of the reference
character set extended with the Danish national letters (Æ, Ø, Å,
æ, ø, å) and the three letters most frequently required in
addition hereto (, , ).

The control character set defined by ISO is divided into the four
subgroups:
- transmission control (TC)
- device control (DC)
- format effectors (FE)
- information separators (IS)
and some special characters. The grouping and the intended use is
shown in 3.1.1 together with a list of the commonly used abbrevi-
ations.
The control characters used in each of the ranges shown in the
diagram in 1.3.1 are described in the following subsections. They
follow the ISO recommendation for usage where it makes sense
(e.g. the format effectors) and they differ in other areas (e.g.
cursor control) which are not anticipated in the ISO recommenda-
tion.

The character set used by the basic software in RC8000 utilizes
only a few control characters.
The list of control characters is shown in 3.2.1. In addition to
this, DEL (7/15) is often used as a fill character. The FF (0/12)
is mainly used to format text files for output on printers.

The control character set for keyboard input represents the most
commonly required keyboard functions. The set is shown in 3.3.1
with recommended engravings if special keys are provided.
None of the standard keyboards manufactured by RC include sepa-
rate control keys for all the assigned control characters in the
set, but they may all (assigned as well as unassigned) be gene-
rated by depressing the CONTROL key in connection with a graphic
key.
Assigned control characters should only be used for the functions
indicated (or very similar ones). New functions should be assign-
ed to free positions considering the ISO recommendation.

The control character sets in the different ranges (see 1.3.1)
are in principle independent, but the input data are echoed on
the display as well as processed internally and the output data
are prepared internally and often sent concurrently to a display
and a printer. Therefore strong emphasis should be put on assign-
ing similar meanings and functions to the same control character
position in the different sets.
The reference table in 3.6.1 gives an overview of the 4 control
character sets showing only a few unassigned positions (of which
SYN (1/6) should preferably not be used).

The transition from one character set to another is governed by
four types of conversion tables:
Keyboard Input --' Keyboard Echo (= Display Output)
Keyboard Input --' Program Input
Program Output --' Display Output
Program Output --' Printer Output
The first two are normally implemented as one combined table but
will be described separately in this manual.
All tables in this chapter are using the same n_o_m_e_n_c_l_a_t_u_r_e_:
A character to be converted is given its c_o_l_u_m_n_/_r_o_w_ number
and the converted character is described in the correspond-
ing field in the table which may take one of four shapes:
x/
y @ - the character (x/y) is converted to the character
indicated (e.g. @).
x/
y - this character is skipped.
x/
y see 7 - the character (x/y) is converted to a string of
characters or further information is supplied in
the text under the index specified (e.g. 7 ).
x/
y - the character is n_o_t_ converted, i.e. the value is
the same (only used for control characters which
have no significance in that context).
The conversion tables included in this manual are the ones recom-
mended to RC8000. Actual conversion tables may differ sligthly
due to a different set of peripherals.
The graphic character set used to illustrate the conversion tab-
les is the Danish graphic character set.

Notes to the table:
- Null is suppressed.
- The attention characters (0/7, 1/11, 1/12) have no
immediate echo but will probably result in some kind of
output on the terminal.
1 DELETE LINE: <--- (0/5)
The effect of this character should preferably be that all
characters present in the input buffer are erased from the
buffer as well as from the terminal. However, due to the
diversity of terminals (printing terminals as well as dis-
plays) it is generally not possible to erase them from the
terminal. Therefore, the echo is:
(5/14)
In a more controlled environment (e.g. internally in an
RC852 terminal) it would, however, be possible to specify
a more appropriate echo reaction.
2 DELETE CHAR: <--- (0/8)
The echo is:
BS (0/8)
SP (2/0)
BS (0/8)
This function is intended for display terminals.
3 RUBOUT: DEL (7/15)
The echo is:
_ (5/15)
This function is equivalent to 2 but intended for prin-
ting terminals.
\f
4 SEND: invoked by LF (0/10)

The echo is identical and consists of:

A keyboard layout is built up by a number of layers as depicted
in the overview shown in 5.1.1. The ISO 2126 standard (see 5)
defines the position of most of the basic graphic character keys
and forms the b_a_s_i_c_ _k_e_y_b_o_a_r_d_ _l_a_y_o_u_t_ which is a mandatory kernel
of any actual keyboard layout.
The ISO 2126 is extended to a r_e_f_e_r_e_n_c_e_ _k_e_y_b_o_a_r_d_ _l_a_y_o_u_t_ defining
the key position of all the graphic character positions.
Preferably based upon the reference layout and following national
standards where they exist, a number of n_a_t_i_o_n_a_l_ _k_e_y_b_o_a_r_d_ _l_a_y_o_u_t_s_
have been selected as RC standard.
The graphic character section occupies the same key positions in
all the national layouts. This section is then extended with the
b_a_s_i_c_ _c_o_n_t_r_o_l_ _f_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_s_ for the terminal type.
On top of all this the a_c_t_u_a_l_ _k_e_y_b_o_a_r_d_ _l_a_y_o_u_t_ is formed by adding
further control keys and duplicate graphic keys, for instance as
to form a numeric key pad.

A keyboard layout is defined by means of the layout form as shown.
The key positions are referenced by naming the rows A through G
and the (somewhat bended) columns 98, 99, and 00 through 21. The
space bar occupies thus the positions A01, A02 through A08.
A few reference lines were drawn in the diagram to show the posi-
tions of some of the columns.
Light emitting diodes (LED) can be mounted in key tops in the
positions:

The ISO 2126 Standard defines the position of the graphic char-
acter section including shift keys which is shown as the non-
shaded area. In addition the key positions of the international
letters, the digits, the comma (,) and the period (.) have been
laid down by the standard.

The reference keyboard layout has been worked out after careful
examination of the mutually conflicting international standards
and the de-facto industrial standard.
The "standard"s are falling into two groups, -
- group 1: ISO 2530 standard for the international character set,
6.
ECMA 23 standard for character sets with national
letters, 2.
De-facto industrial standards derived from a variety
of existing keyboards.
- group 2: ISO 3243 guidelines for harmonization of character
sets with national letters, 7.
National standards, e.g. 12 and 13.
The RC Reference Layout has been based upon the former group
because it seems to be the larger and because it harmonizes with
the keyboards hitherto manufactered by RC. Note, however, that
national standards shall be followed where they exist even if
they fall in the second group.
The reference keyboard layout corresponds closely to the referen-
ce character set from 2.2.1. The key positions corresponding to
the free positions in the character set are marked with column/
row indications (e.g. 7/14 ) instead of graphics.

The national variants of the keyboard layouts correspond to the
national variants of the graphic character sets and are based
upon national standard (if they exist) or upon the reference
keyboard layout.
Special versions of keyboard layouts may be selected on specific
customer request whereas the RC Standard National variant is
chosen as default.

Since there is no national standard in Denmark for keyboard
layouts, the RC Standard Danish keyboard layout is derived by
mapping the RC Standard Danish graphic character set upon the
reference keyboard layout as shown in 5.4.1.1.

Compared with the reference keyboard layout there is one altera-
tion only, viz. the sign instead of the # sign in E 03. Other-
wise the column/row-specified positions of the reference keyboard
layout are filled according to the set-up of the graphic charac-
ter set in 2.3.4.1.

The basic control function keys are placed immediately to the
right and left of the graphic character key section (cf. 8).
Two of the keys (CTRL and RUBOUT) enables the keyboard to gen-
erate the full set of input values (0-127). The other keys repre-
sent the most frequently used control functions; they have been
selected with emphasis put on a scroll mode terminal but the se-
lected functions will be present for most other applications,
too.
The layout of the control function keys together with their
corresponding input values is shown in 5.5.1. Below follows a
description of the functions.
RUBOUT (7/15) delivers the value 127. Should be present on any
general TTY-compatible terminal.
CTRL The depression of the CTRL key in conjunction with a cha-
racter key, which normally delivers a value in the range
32-127 (columns 2/ to 7/), will suppress the two most
significant bits and thus transform the value delivered
(modulo 32) to a value in the range 0-31. Therefore, the
input value 13 corresponding to CR (0/13) may be obtained
by simultaneously depressing CTRL and either m (6/13) or M
(4/13) or - (2/13).
<--- (0/5) provides DELETE LINE or FIELD BACKWARD
<--- (0/8) provides DELETE CHAR or BACK SPACE
---' (0/9) provides TABULATE or FIELD FOREWARD
<--- (0/13) provides CARRIAGE RETURN or RETURN
ESC (1/11) is often used to break the normal input/output
stream. In RC8000 it is interpreted as REMOTE ATTEN-
TION.

There are two main criteria when designing a new keyboard layout
(apart from the subtlety of respecting the technical limits).
The first criterion is f_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_a_l_i_t_y_. The functions which are
most frequently used should be easily attained (i.e. one key
stroke and the key placed near the basic position of the fingers),
whereas functions which are seldomly used need not be quite so
easy to attain (e.g. two keys combined or further away from the
basic position of the fingers).
Minor hints:
- do place functions which belong together on keys forming a
group or otherwise connected (e.g. the cursor positioning keys
on RC700),
- do n_o_t_ place dangerous keys immediately next to very frequent-
ly used keys in order to minimize the harm in case the rigth
key is missed (e.g. the DELETE LINE key is placed far away
from the RETURN key, whereas the DELETE CHAR key is tolerable
next to the RETURN key).
The second criterion is that the keyboard should have an a_t_t_r_a_c_-
t_i_v_e_ _l_o_o_k_. No advice will be given, look at the examples and make
your own judgement.
5_._6_._1_ _ _ _ _ _E_x_t_e_n_s_i_o_n_s_ 5.6.1
The most common extension of a keyboard is to add a numeric key
pad. When this is done the ISO standard (see ref. 9) should be
followed. Following this standard which allows some variations a
key pad kernel has been worked out as the one shown below.
\f
F_
A further extension has been made which includes some of the
basic control functions in order to suit one-hand operations.
The position of the key pad relative to the fixed part of the
keyboard will depend upon the number and the position of other
added keys (see examples in 5.6.3).
5_._6_._2_ _ _ _ _ _C_h_a_n_g_e_s_ 5.6.2
It is possible and often desirable to change the keyboard without
clearing its shape (e.g. the national variants of a keyboard have
the same shape). In the simplest form this only requires exchang-
ing of the key tops with new engravings. Another possibility is
to exchange input values as well as key tops.
\f
F_5_._6_._3_ _ _ _ _ _E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s_ 5.6.3
As an illustration of the possibilities three examples of key-
boards are enclosed. These examples show actual stages in the
development of the keyboards. A few notes to the illustrations
follows below.
In 5.6.3.1 a short keyboard for the RC700 is shown.
In 5.6.3.2 a standard keyboard for the RC851 scroll mode terminal
is shown.
In 5.6.3.3 a keyboard for the RC855 combined scrool and format
mode terminal is shown. The input values are only shown for
scroll mode keys, since the terminal uses an 8-bit character set
when it is in format mode. Note, that the SEND key and the RETURN
key ( ) both delivers the input value (0/13) when the terminal
is in scroll mode (but not in format mode). \f

Figure 1: Control panel.
1) POWER - when pressed to light,
push-button/indicator power is applied to the
tape unit.
2) LOAD - when pressed to light, a
push-button/indicator load sequence is ini-
tiated.
Pressing and releasing
the LOAD push-button for
the first time after
mounting a reel of tape,
causes the tape to be
tensioned.
Pressing and releasing it
a second time, causes the\f
tape to advance to the
BOT mark and stop. (BOT =
b_eginning o_f t_ape; EOT =
e_nd o_f tape).
3) ON LINE - when pressed to light,
push-button/indicator the tape unit is in the
on-line mode. This control
can only be used after
having performed a load,
or rewind, sequence.
Pressing and releasing it
a second time will cause
the unit to go off-line.
The off-line mode can
also be caused by a
system command, or by
lack of tape tension.
4) REWIND - when pressed to light,
push-button/ indicator the tape will rewind at
maximum speed. This con-
trol can only be used in
the off-line mode.
On reaching the BOT mark,
the rewind drive ceases
and the load sequence is
automatically entered.
The REWIND indicator
remains lit also during
the subsequent load
sequence.
5) WRT EN (W_r_it_e E_n_able) - this indicator is illumi-
indicator nated, when mounting a
reel of tape with a write
enable ring. \f
If no write enable ring is
mounted, the tape unit
can only read from the
tape.
6) HI DEN (H_i_gh D_e_n_sity) - when pressed to ligth,
push-button/indicator the high density record-
ing method is selected
(PE/1600 bpi).
When pressed not to ligth
(alternate press), the
low density recording
method is selected
(NRZI/800 bpi).
7) FORWARD - when pressed to ligth,
push-button/indicator the tape will be moved
forward at normal opera-
ting speed. This control
can only be used in the
off-line mode.
Pressing and releasing it
a second time will cause
the tape to stop.
8) REVERSE - moves the tape in the
push-button/indicator reverse direction, other-
wise functioning as the
FORWARD control.

The operating points are shown in fig. 2. The tape unit is de-
signed for a maximum reel diameter of 10.5 inches (corresponding
to 2400 feet of tape).
The supply reel, i.e. the reel of tape to be read or written,
always is the lower reel. Note that the presence of a write
enable ring is required to close the interlocks which allow
writing (otherwise reading is possible only).

The tape is loaded as the supply reel (lower reel). The tape must
unwind from the supply reel when the reel is turned in a
clockwise direction. To load the tape reel, position the reel
over the quick-release hub and press the center plunger (note: on
some models the center plunger is replaced by a locking handle).
This allows the reel to slip over the rubber ring on the hub.
Press the reel evenly and firmly against the back flange of the
hub, still with the center plunger pressed inwards. Release the
center plunger. The reel is now properly aligned in the tape path
and ready for tape threading. Then rotate the supply reel to give
about 1.5 meters of free tape.
Thread the tape along the path shown in fig. 2. It will be neces-
sary to rotate the supply reel and hold the flux gate unit away
from the read-write head during tape threading.
Wrap the tape leader onto the take-up reel so that the tape will
be wound onto the reel when it is rotated clockwise. Wind several
turns onto the take-up reel, then turn the supply reel counter-
clockwise until slack tape has been taken up.

After the tape has been manually tensioned and checked for
correct seating in the guides, bring the tape to the load point
as follows.
1. Switch on power by pressing the POWER push-button. If
desirable, power can automatically be switched on/off as the
system is switched on/off, when after the initial power-on
sequence the POWER push-button is left untuched.
2. Press and release the LOAD push-button. This applies power to
the capstan and reel motors and brings the tape to the
correct operating tension. The tape storage arms are now in
the operating position.
\f
CAUTION: Check that the tape is positioned correctly on all
guides or tape damage may result.
3. Press and release the LOAD push-button a second time. This
causes the tape to move forward. When the reflective BOT mark
reaches BOT/EOT tab sensor, the tape is at load point and
stops. Check the tape tracking in the guides again and close
the dust cover.
CAUTION: The dust cover should remain closed at all times
when a tape is on the take-up reel. Data reliability
may be impaired by dust and other particles in the
air if the cover is left open.
4. Select the correct recording density, using the HI DEN
push-button.
5. Depress the ON LINE push-button. When the indicator lights,
the tape unit is ready to receive system commands.

1. Ensure that the tape unit is in the off-line mode, i.e. the ON
LINE indicator is not lit. If necessary, press and release
the ON LINE push-button in order to establish the off-line
mode.
CAUTION: Only switch the tape unit off-line, while the tape is
at rest.
2. Press and release the REWIND push-button. When the tape has
rewound to the BOT mark, it comes to a controlled stop. The
tape overshoots and the transport enters the load sequence to
