Ts2000 is a good rig and very blind friendly but also quite a power box in
emergency you may need to operate off batteries which could be a little
difficult.

The TS-2000, like most recent Kenwood rigs, will read menu numbers,
frequency, and (I think) S-meter reading. Also has an autotuner, and
the mode is output in a one-letter morse abbreviation (c for cw, u for
usb, l for lsb, etc.)
Personally, I wouldn't use the black box computer control only
version for an EOC. Any version can be computer controlled, but
relying on this exclusively sounds like one more thing to potentially
go wrong, and you want to minimize these as much as possible in an
emergency communications thingy.
