Editing Cardinal CP600 (section)

==Description==
The unit integrates a keyboard, card swipe mechanism, telephone modem, terminal functionality (and possibly more) into a single keyboard unit. A speaker resides underneath the keyboard and the unit has several ports on the back including parallel, serial, modem and an RCA output for a monitor.

The board uses [[Mitsumi_spring_over_membrane|Mitsumi spring over membrane]] switches.

The keyboard makes extensive use of plastic clips to hold the chassis together. No screws are used to hold the top and bottom outer plastic shells, and the keyboard itself uses plastic "hot rivets" to adhere to the upper shell and thus is not removable using standard tools.
