Editing Cherry G80-0528 (section)

==Introduction==

The G80-0528 is a 116/117-key AT/XT switchable keyboard produced by Cherry for NCR, Nixdorf and Olympia. It is unknown at this time if all three versions were AT/XT switchable, the switch is documented in the Olympia and Nixdorf branded G80-0528  at this time. The layout is reminiscent of the Cherry G80-2100 series without the raised case and function rows at the top common to 122-key. 

The [[Cherry MX Black]] switches are PCB mounted. The PCB displays the usual "Cherry / Fuba" production marking of this era. The two Cherry labels on the Olympia branded G80-0528 PCB read:

*'''Article Number: G80-0814H/15'''
*'''Serial Number: 12161'''
*'''Customer Number: H0150-STD1-11-17'''

The two Cherry labels on the Nixdorf branded G80-0528 PCB read:

*'''Article Number: G80-0942H/11'''
*'''Serial Number: 20557'''
*'''Customer Number: H0150-STD1-11-17'''

The customer number is also present on the side of the case right above where the connector cable exits the case. A grey MX switch is used for the 10 unit spacebar. There is one center key mount and 2 additional stabiliser mounts, 3.5 units left and right of the center. The keyboard uses Cherry [[Double-shot moulding|doubleshots]] with a slightly darker grey than regular Cherry keyboards at that time. The legends are a dark grey instead of the solid black that most Cherry doubleshots use. 

Some versions of the G80-0528 came with a cardboard overlay for the function row at the top, this overlay is for noting shortcuts and notes and is printed on both sides. An NCR branded G80-0528 with an overlay can be seen [[http://www.kbdmania.net/xe/photo/2077093 here.]] The Nixdorf version exists with a full cardboard overlay.<ref>Ebay — [http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/c9wAAOSwWWxY-gT0/s-l1600.jpg Cherry G80-0528 Nixdorf with full cardboard overlay]</ref>
