PS2 Keyboard adapter Num lock issue

For long time, I used this PS2 Keyboard adapter for my APPLE //e and there was no inconvenices.


And  Yesterday, I obtain a MINI keyboard adapter.
It is quite simple and looks good for small table for testing.


It worked with this PS2 adapter but, I found a issue.

PS2 Keybaord adapter was developed for full sized keyboard and there is 10keys pad is on right side.
And adapter always the Num lock ON. it was OK with it. 
but for this mini keyboard is using this 10keys are overlayed over the alphabet area. It became a problem here.
I can't key-in properly cause the num lock always ON and it send numbers insted alphabet..

 

'PS2 Keyboard Adapter didn't be designed to OFF the Num lock.'

I started to update firmware to handle Num Lock and now, I can OFF and ON.
And It can save as Power Default.
So, now It can ON or OFF Num lock when Power ON.

And Bonus function, Also Caps Lock also can save for Power ON default.

Unfortunatelly, This firmware coudn't be updated by remote so, only future ordered items would be apply this function. sorry for this.

If user could send the board to me, I could update firmware for free but, shipping costs is the matter.

Thanks
