Thanks mate, appreciate your comments. Given some of the MCU's cost pennies now, what about a dual MCU setup whereby the input to each is switched via a small input PCB? perhaps just switching v+?

Apologies if I'm talking out of my 4rs3, feel free to crack me with a piece of 4x4.

Dual USB cable - Firware hot-swappable

Maybe not immediately obvious what I want to do here so... :?: I often have to work with client laptops\desktops, I hate having to use anything other than my own external keyboard, I've used KVM's, KM's, which can cause all sorts of issues with some of the port monitoring software used by my clients...

Given the Pok3r comes with an aluminium case I'd hazard a guess that money was saved elsewhere in the production. The standard caps are pretty nasty and I really noticed the difference when I coupled the Pok3r with some DSA Dolch.

Down n dirty, you could remove connection to pins one by one to see if behaviour changes. Given the precarious state of the Arduino this may be best done keyside. Trial and error should allow you to identify offending port(s). Given it looks like only 12 pins are used if only a couple are damaged th...

Indeed, I concur with with you. However after checking\fixing all my wiring I managed to track my issues down to 4 consecutive keys on a row, bridging the diodes allowed me to diagnose the faulty diode.

Hi Matt When you say disassembling the prototype, I assume you are referring to everything? De-soldering switches\diodes etc? I would check all switches \ diodes \ connections, as I had slightly erratic behavior with mine which turned out to be a dodgy diode. Without seeing the layout it looks like ...

Trackpoint for project

Evening people, can anyone recommend a good trackpoint for me to integrate into one of my projects? When I say good I'm looking for reasonably priced, controllable from within TMK and readily available? Any suggestions welcome.

In each case as already mentioned troubleshoot the first error, it's likely that the others will drop off once all the syntax is correct. Ensure your makefile has appropriate settings for the AVR you are using. Sometimes,...

not sure if this has been done already (it might be, it kinda looks familiar, but I could be wrong).
Looks a little similar to some of the Lambretta colours if I'm not mistaken.

It is the diode in both cases - ie, bridging the diode creates the expected output. Looking at the board more closely I see the LGUI diode is actually soldered in backwards (duh...my bad and I thought I double checked all of them!). The Z diode is in correctly, but is presumably faulty (or perhaps ...

Afternoon all,

Hopefully someone can assist. I have changed the layout on my board and have "/?' on my FN0 layer (Q), however I want FN+Q to give me question mark not forward slash. How do I get the shifted state of this key? :oops:
