Launch not respecting settings #230

Closed stockphrase closed 6 months ago

stockphrase commented 6 months ago

I'm noticing that the keyboard will occasionally decide to change settings by itself and begin lighting up, even though I have it set for disabled. I have to remove the USB cord from the keyboard, plug it in, and then use the configurator to return to disabled.

I should also note this behavior: when I notice that the lights have returned, I go into the configurator and try to use the software to alter the settings. The keyboard does not respond to any change requests. The only option is to unplug/replug.

Which version of Launch do you have? The configurator should say it above the layout when Launch is plugged in.

launch_3

Try this.

Hit keys FN + Esc. The keyboard will no longer accept any settings and the LEDs do whatever they want. I suppose this is supposed to be Layer 2, reset. But after this the keyboard will not accept other settings.

Since this is very close to hitting Super + Esc, which is what I use to lock my computer while I'm away, things can get annoying fast.

Ah I think I know what is going on. Are you seeing the letters "U N L O C K E D" light up in sequence? That Reset key is for firmware updates. Left ctrl + right ctrl + Esc should do the same thing, if you just want to remove that mapping on L2.

I moved the offending key...thanks.

No problem!
