Does the elbox a1200 keyboard adapter allow multiple simultaneous keystrokes?

[keropi]

I've heared that some keyboard converters do not allow simultaneous keystrokes, is the elbox pc-key 1200 one of them??? i intend to use it with an A4000 keyboard...
thanx!  :-D

Yes.

Yes (I know, I have one ...)

Yes, I had some problems with pc-key 1200 and a4000T keyboard. Arrow keys didn't work simultaneous, so it made some games more difficult... and for example shift-ramiga-s combination didn't work.. then the whole adapter broke down and I had to buy new one. Bought Lyra instead and it works like a charm. Only downside is that had to buy PC keyboard for it.

Seriously?!  You can't even do a Ctrl-C to escape or quit?
Ditch it and buy a real one!
Mine's the EZ-key from Eyetech (possibly no longer trading, search for 2nd hand) and it works fine.

Yeah, Ctrl-C won't work. I've discovered that when I tried to close availp96 utility from shell. It can only be closed like that, and with Elbox's PC key you can't do much about it. :-(

ctrl-c and most that kind of combinations worked fine here. It was only some certain combinations which didn't... can't remember if I ever needed any other combination which wouldn't worked besides those I mentioned

Like that ramiga-s worked in ced (search forward), but shift-ramiga-s didn't work (search for...).

 I have a lyra adaptor and it works beautifully.
