Manual for GenBoard/VerThree

There is an ongoing construction / conversion process, that causes some inconvenience in the transition period.

If it does not fully answer your question, it's a good idea to search for keywords (like ignition) on SiteIndex and browse through relevant pages.

[HTML Manual 1] and (slightly different format, might not be up2date) [HTML Manual 2]

This [naughty page] still links the old unmaintained manual, there are serious errors in it. Use the new one above. TODO: fix the link on /documentation.html (it's not an editable wiki page).

I have plenty of changes written to a copy of the .doc format manual that I will add as soon as I am permitted to edit the new xml manual. Please post when this will be possible. Thank you. (MembersPage/JimW)

The PS/2 connector pinout is wrong in the manual, correct pinout is available on GenBoard/KeyBoard .. Is the manual files available somewhere so I can fix it, or is it maintained by someone? //Emil
