The keypad can be opened by removing the four screws on the bottom.
VisiCalc Notice (printed on some kind of paper that didn’t age well).The keypad shipped in a simple white box with gray graphics and print. The print key displayed a single question mark, which was shorthand for the AppleSoft Basic PRINT statement. The right cluster consisted of two columns offering open and close parenthesis, minus, divided by, plus, multiply, return, and print. The middle cluster had a standard numeric keypad with a 1.5u zero key at the bottom left, a comma key to its right, and a decimal key after that. The left-most cluster (one column) consisted of (from top to bottom) escape, left arrow, right arrow, and space. The numpad features 24 keys arranged in a grid of 6 × 4. Both versions were encased in a rounded ABS plastic clamshell case positioned at a fixed seven degree angle and bearing the apple logo in the lower-left side of the top surface. The later version (from 1983 onwards) used Alps black cross mount integrated dome switches and dye-sublimated PBT keycaps with smaller dark legends. The earlier version (from 1982) used Alps SKCC tall black switches and double-shot PBT keycaps with larger capitalized white legends. In early 2019 I acquired one of these and set to work at converting it to work with QMK, and documented everything below.Īpple made two versions of the keypad, both released under model number A2M2003.
