Need help mapping HP keyboard

We have a program which needs to differentiate between the number keys
across the top of the keypad and the numeric keypad on the right side
when running on the console of an HP300 (98782A).  We know it is possible
since they are usable as vt100 keypad keys when running under 'xterm'
under X.

Ideally, we would like the numeric keypad to return escape sequences but
would settle for writing some sort of HP-specific keyboard scanning
function.

Does anyone have any insight into this problem?  Even just a pointer in
the direction of a manual describing what we need to do would be helpful.

Please respond by email.

Thanks in advance.
