## Compatibility

The kinT keyboard controller was made for the Kinesis Advantage or Advantage 2

The kinT keyboard controller is not compatible with the newer Kinesis Advantage
360 series, introduced in 2022, because the 360 is a split keyboard that uses an

The kinT keyboard controller is also not compatible with **very old Advantage**
keyboards, where the left and right keywell circuit boards plug directly into
the controller. See [issue #42](https://github.com/kinx-project/kint/issues/42)
