Fadal Keyboard (ELE-1783/84 & 1519): Modernized Engineering for Unrivaled Durability

CNCPros offers the definitive Fadal keyboard, the ELE-1783/84 & ELE-1519, specifically engineered to surpass the limitations of original equipment designs. Compatible with all CNC88 and MP Pendants, our keyboards are constructed with modern, high-grade components to provide outstanding durability and long-term reliability in the demanding machine shop environment.

Superior Engineering and Performance Over Original Equipment

Our Fadal keyboards are not merely replacements; they are a significant upgrade. We have addressed the primary failure points of original Fadal keyboards with a series of key technical enhancements:

  • Mechanical Switch Technology: We have replaced the failure-prone membrane switches with high-end, mechanical switch technology, rated for an operational lifespan of 10 million actuations. This provides a vastly superior tactile feel, prevents intermittent signal loss, and offers unprecedented durability compared to the short lifecycle of the original membrane designs.
  • Enhanced Connectivity: The problematic carbon cables of the original design have been eliminated. Our keyboard utilizes a modern, keyed ribbon cable that ensures a foolproof installation and provides a robust, stable data connection to the control, significantly reducing the risk of signal integrity issues.
  • Reinforced Structural Integrity: The PCB is structurally reinforced with integrated metal stiffeners on the top and bottom. This design innovation prevents board flex, which is a major contributor to stress-related component failure. The result is a keyboard that maintains its integrity under the daily operational stresses of a machine shop.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting your Fadal keyboard

A keyboard failure to operate can be caused by a few things.

  1. Dirty or bad cable between the keyboard and 1420 interface board
  2. Locked up keyboard interface board
  3. Bad keys on the keyboard

If your issue is #2, give us a call for a new one.

If you find that most of the keys work, but only a few don't, this is due to a bad keyboard only.  Do not replace the interface board. 

We have plenty of all styles of keyboards in stock, so call us if you need one. 208-888-9236
