What does the text keyboard control on the OEC 6800?+
The text keyboard is the primary operator input panel on the OEC 6800. It provides access to imaging functions such as exposure control, image freeze, last image hold, image processing adjustments, and system navigation — with each key labeled in printed text rather than graphical icons. It is typically replaced when keys become worn and unresponsive, key labels become illegible, or physical damage occurs from impact or fluid exposure.
What is the difference between the Text Keyboard and the Icon Keyboard on the OEC 6800?+
The Text Keyboard (
00-879280-03) uses printed text labels on each key, while the
Icon Keyboard (00-879280-04) uses graphical symbol keys. Both keyboards perform the same functions — the difference is labeling style only. Always replace your keyboard with the same style that was originally installed. If you are unsure which type your unit has, call
