I have to ask simple question here: how can I know my keyboard is a 3270 terminal or non-3270 keyboard? just to see if there is enter key?

Is there a problem involving keyboards with no enter key? :omg:

3270 compatible keyboards will typically have two rows of function keys - although early keyboards will have none. Can you give me some more information about this keyboard please? For example what connector is on the cable? Are there any keys on it that are not on a standard keyboard (a photo would be nice)? Do you know the make/model?

Unless you have an old school terminal connected to a main frame, the answer is no. 3270 keyboards had a “return” key (with a hooked arrow picture like a bent “tab” arrow) where PCs have the “Enter” key. 3270 keyboards had an “Enter” key where a PC keyboard right Ctrl key is located. Many 3270 emulators use the right Ctrl key for Enter as it is consistent for typing. On 3270, carriage return is a local operation like tab. Enter sends all data entered in the screen to the host. IBM 3270 dealt with screens of data at a time versus character at a time.
