External Matricial Keyboard

Description Download ! Information More Photos History

This is a little device that lets you control your calc by connecting an external matricial keyboard ! It needs no driver on the calc ! It uses the Remote Control mode supported on the TI89 and TI92/92+. It was originally designed for the TI89, but it will work on a TI92(+). Power is supplied by a 9V or a pack of 4 R6 batteries. The main idea of this device is to be as cheap as possible and to be functionnal. The Kbd is 28x13x1.5 cm.
