4704 Keyboard Protocol
 | 
			
		||||
======================
 | 
			
		||||
On powering up the keyboard sends keyboard id; A3h for 6019284(62-key), for example.
 | 
			
		||||
After that firmware enters FC command mode and waits for parameter data from host
 | 
			
		||||
so that it doesn't send any scancode until you send 'FF'(End of FC command).
