<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Determine the number of supported keyboard types</h4><p>To determine the number of keyboard types that the twinaxial
or ASCII controllers can support, you must understand the following information:</p>
<ul><li>A twinaxial or ASCII workstation controller can support several types
of keyboards and languages.</li>
<li>Each of the supported languages can be available on more than one of the
supported keyboards.</li>
<li>For each workstation controller, the size of the conversion table for
each keyboard is different.</li>
<li>The matrix for languages used on each supported keyboard type is called
a keyboard and language computational factor.</li>
<li>The sum of the computational factors for each required keyboard type determines
whether all required keyboard types can be supported on one workstation controller.</li>
<li>If the sum of the computational factors for the required keyboard types
exceeds the maximum limit, the language for the first workstation that caused
the overflow and any additional workstations set to U.S. English as the default.</li>
<li>To recover from a keyboard-type overflow, you can do one
of the following tasks: <ul><li>Attach the workstation causing the overflow to a second workstation controller.</li>
<li>On the same workstation controller, configure the workstations causing
the overflow to some other keyboard type that reduces the sum of the computational
factor to within the maximum limits.</li>
</ul>
