I am thinking about getting a Tipro FREE qwerty POS keyboard and the website says that the keyboard can only be programmed through rs232 connection. Do converters work for this or could I run ChangeMe in legacy mode to make it work through PS/2 on a 64 bit system running Win10?
Also, are all keys programmable, not just the blank ones?

The PS/2 version only works with none 64 bit systems, VMs don't work but i don't believe anyone has tried testing passing the whole IOMMU group containing the Ps/2 controller to a VM.
USB will be fine.
Never seen a RS232 tipro tho.

Just profile-checked ... and saw your main keyboard is already a Tipro FREE Qwerty...Z0MG H4X wrote: ↑24 Jan 2019, 01:19I am thinking about getting a Tipro FREE qwerty POS keyboard and the website says that the keyboard can only be programmed through rs232 connection.

Before Tiproman replies, let's see if I am correct:
Theoretically, Tipro PS/2 controllers work with all systems but can only be programmed in a Windows 32-bit system via its proprietary software. Tipro FREE with USB controllers can be programmed in a Windows 64-bit system.
Once programmed it can work in any system.
I think your question came from this thread:

You may have to ask the OP and I am also curious about in programming PS/2 Tipro in Windows 64-bit.

Sorry I thought that was a security question when I created my profile the other day, just updated it. I read on another post that I could just make a separate bootable drive for 32 bit Win10 and just boot up from there whenever I want to program a Tipro through PS/2. Since 32 bit Win10 works perfectly fine I was thinking that running ChangeMe in legacy mode could also work.Menuhin wrote: ↑24 Jan 2019, 11:59Just profile-checked ... and saw your main keyboard is already a Tipro FREE Qwerty...Z0MG H4X wrote: ↑24 Jan 2019, 01:19I am thinking about getting a Tipro FREE qwerty POS keyboard and the website says that the keyboard can only be programmed through rs232 connection.

It should also be noted that the computer must have the corresponding socket, as any adapter will prevent identification of the keyboard by the software.
