Nah, it's definitely the same font.

You can probably round the corners off by fiddling with it in a vector program, eg. Draw text, do"object->path", make the stroke wider with rounded corners, then do "inset".

Those 1990s versions were the best. Corel went steadily downhill since then.

It clearly isn't. It's closer to Courier with the rounded serifs, the solo K especially. That would make some sense from a TE pov as that and the Univers fonts both had some connection to the same designer, and were made for IBM, way back when. The K in Keithley looks like a modified lower case Courier k.

There's a fair chance it's a modified version of a commercial font so that Keithley didn't have to pay for a license to use it, though as I understand it IBM didn't copyright the Courier font anyway.

It's probably superfluous to point out that the Colt font was designed for Adobe, so the Keithley use predates it by decades, but I'm sure you already knew that.

There's a version of Colt Soft that is probably the closest you'll get with a modern font:  https://blogfonts.com/colt-soft-.font
