UK keyboard on german A1200
« on: June 15, 2014, 05:17:12 PM »
Hello Amiga-Fans,

I have a german Amiga 1200 with german keyboard.
My question: Is it possible to use a british keyboard on a german Amiga?
Or did i need a british mainboard? Thank you.

Confirmed, you can indeed use a UK English keyboard on any A1200.

Hi AmigaKit :)

Is it really no problem to change UK keyboard <-> DE keyboard?
Just a question: What, if i have a british A1200 and use a german keyboard -
can I use german keys like ö, ä, ü, etc. after changing UK -> DE keyboard in
WordWorth, FinalWriter, etc.?

The keyboard interface is identical electronically on all A1200 motherboards so it will work with any A1200 keyboard whatever the language.

Great, thank you! :)

Is there a different between Commodore keyboard and Amiga Tech. keyboard?
