History

2016-07-02: set up the terminal as console for the ND-110 Satellite today. It works. I discovered that the "C" key on the keyboard is broken, it sticks when pressed. Probably lacks a spring. Temporary workaround: removed the keycap.

2016-06-30: testing - pressing the "LOKAL" (local) button allows me to write characters on the screen - it works.

2016-06-30: setup - holding down the CTRL key and pressing "HJÄLP" (help) key twice gets me into the setup menu, which reads left side

"NOKIA ND-DISPLAY TERMINAL 301"
"SET-UP DIRECTORY"
"General"
"Display"
"Communication"
"Printer"
"Keybioard"
"Tabulation"
"Pushkeys"
