Hey guys, when I was using my ZKB-2 with an AT adapter and PS/2 converter it worked fairly fine, but now that I'm using an AT/XT Soarer's converter for it (I need the PS/2 one to test things with) for some reason the nav and numpad output only numbers, a bit like it were as if it was stuck in XT mode. No, the keyboard is not set to XT mode. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to toggle Num Lock, which might have resolved the issue, and shift+nav or +numpad doesn't return arrow functions either. Does anyone have an idea of what might be going on here and how to fix it? Cheers!

Hi Chyros. So, Num Lock would toggle with the AT/PS2 converter setup and now does not with the Soarer's converter? Is there anyway you can see the scan codes the board is sending? Perhaps the Soarer's setup is sending a 'CLEAR' rather than a 'NUMLOCKCLEAR' code? (OS X replaces Num Lock with Clear and maybe Soarer is doing the same)

There may be some more help in this article (ie. pressing Alt/Option 5x?):

Isn't macOS incapable of Num Lock? Alternate navigation functionality doesn't work on number pads, under macOS.

Maybe it's not that, I don't know. But it does seem to be a numpad-related issue, as the arrows output numbers instead.

I've tried pressing Alt 5x, that didn't appear to do anything unfortunately D: .

My ZKB-2 does that too actually. I think the fix is just to remap those keys to numberpad keys and check that the scan codes coming off of them aren't funky using HID_listen. Haven't actually gotten around to trying it myself, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work.
