You can try using this tool (still pretty new) [Requires the Analog SDK], it will show you the history of your analog signal for keys and can help investigate keys not behaving correctly.

  • It is not code signed yet, so you will get Windows SmartScreen crying.
  • Let me know if you need it for a different platform, I have Mac and Linux builds
normal moss
#

no windows smartscreen issues here :)

covert lodge
#

Huh. interesting

normal moss
#

but

#

my b key is very inconsistent compared to my V key

covert lodge
#

Was it the B key that you were observing having issues in-game?

normal moss
#

Yes

#

It might give an explanation why it suddenly stopped giving input, since the actuation point is set to 0.1mm.

covert lodge
#

You're using rapid trigger as well?

normal moss
#

correct

#

on all keys

#

this is with RT off

covert lodge
#

Do you see any differences if you check it after replugging?

#

Also, when you're in the above situation, are you able to get it to max out if you press the key in harder?

normal moss
normal moss
covert lodge
#

I see, then I suspect that you may be pressing it in fairly hard at one point, which causes it to push in the end of the press calibration, so when you then press it normally, it thinks it's not fully pressed

normal moss
#

But there is more to it, when I press it at the left side of the button it the travel value goes lower. On the right, top and bottom nothing happens. I also checked this for the V key but that one is fine. Might this be a switch issue?

covert lodge
#

Huh, so it gives the furtherst press when pressed on the left side? But right, top and bottom you don't get any signal or what do you get?

normal moss
#

Let me quickly record this and I'll send it

covert lodge
#

Alrighty, ty

normal moss
#

nice mkv moment

#

do you need an MP4 or is MKV fine?

covert lodge
#

mkv is fine

normal moss
#

aighty

covert lodge
#

I see what you mean now, interesting. It would appear that your switch has really bad wiggle, so it may be good to try swapping the switch out

#

In general, the wiggle is something we're working hard to improve/eliminate (in the switches themselves)

normal moss
#

I see, luckily I have some spares so I will swap them out and let you know if that fixes anything

#

might just need to test a bunch of other switches and find a good one lmao

#

yep found a switch that doesn't have this issue, thanks Simon!

covert lodge
#

Great, glad you found a good one, hopefully we can prevent this happening in the future

normal moss
#

Hopefully yeah! Anyway, I am also looking it at the bright side: nothing wrong with the tachyon mode/RT. 2.7.3 beta 2 is working as intended for me

covert lodge
#

Great 😁

dang

#

that thread got big

#

When will the new firmware update release? The not beta one

#

I mean for 60HE

covert lodge
#

When it's running stable on everybody's boards

normal moss
smoky cloak
#

example, i was playing osu with lekkers

#

switch wobbles and this is the result

smoky cloak
#

this happens frequently with lekkers, for example in osu, where u press keys hard the keys get inconsistent on the one side for some reason, with raptors this doesnt happen ever

north trout
normal moss
# smoky cloak example, i was playing osu with lekkers

I can (almost certainly) confirm that this is a major issue. I don't know if it's software related, but after some time the keys you play osu with are getting very inconsistent as shown in the 1st picture. Now replugging the keyboard fixes this issue but that shouldn't be needed. The question here is: are you guys able to come up with a explanation/solution to this problem?

smoky cloak
#

I wasnt even pushing a key like simon mentioned before, i was just playing you know, and this happened. Pretty sure who plays osu all have this issue. This needs to be fixed asap

#

RaptorHE doesnt have this issue.

#

doesnt matter how hard I press or hit a keys in osu billion BPM map

#

this doesnt happen with them

smoky cloak
#

Tried both Beta and Stable wootility doesnt matter, this is a switch issue. I swapped 20 of them still happens.

#

Does it make that much of a difference?

smoky cloak
#

either calibration is the issue or lekkers are bad

#

or both

dire fractal
#

I think the latter given you said the issue goes away with raptors

#

Lekkers have been bad in my experience though.. I have 3-4 boxes of L45 all with some issue

#

Finalmouse level QC actually lol

smoky cloak
#

dude i had my win key on 4.0mm yesterday and i tried to screenshot

#

it didnt work

#

because it wasnt actuating on 4.0mm

#

it was like 3.6mm fully pressed

#

i replug the keyboard and it was fixed

smoky cloak
#

meanwhile raptor switch

#

hope this gets addressed and fixed

#

at first i thought my kb was fucked then other users experienced same issue

smoky cloak
smoky cloak
#

simply not actuating on 4.0mm

#

replug fixes it, and then again if i press any lekker switch like 10 times in osu this happens again

#

more people should be involved here because i think this is a major issue. @alpine solar @tulip tiger

#

I literally pressed 3 and 4 keys 10 times and then they dont actuate on 4.0mm until replug

#

lemme record a vid real quick

#

u can clearly see key doesnt actuate on 4.0mm, yeah maybe this can be wooting analog monitor issue not showing correctly, but no. ive set my key (in this situation my 3 key) to 4.0mm and tested it actuating and it struggles to actuate on it. because of what, because i pressed it 10 times or whatever

#

is this my kb issue or lekker switch ?

#

im not even slamming the keys, this happens everywhere where i have lekker switch

tulip tiger
smoky cloak
#

my bad: )

normal moss
#

Isn’t that kinda weird? How does replugging the keyboard suddenly makes it read properly then?

smoky cloak
#

This is more than weird, and 99% of the time this happens only with lekkers when you spam a key (not only in osu) it kinda loses calibration and no longer goes to 4.0mm and dont tell me something is wrong with analog monitor or else, there is something wrong with lekker switches and the calibration itself

#

there is no way this should happen, for example i have my key on 4.0mm actuation it doesnt actuate at all, if i wont set it below 3.8mm actuation

#

this is not ok

#

And yeah replug fixes this, but then it still has this, when you wiggle the switch.

#

Still waiting for Simon, maybe he can sort this out.

grizzled veldt
#

@smoky cloak that's happen to you the same way on stable 2.7.2 and beta 2.7.3 firmware?

smoky cloak
grizzled veldt
smoky cloak
#

for lekker switches its the same

#

it was always like this i think, but i noticed something was off few days ago and then checked with this software

#

calibration messes up and keys are getting inconsistent

grizzled veldt
smoky cloak
#

@rain mountain

normal moss
covert lodge
#

@smoky cloak For starters, you won't see this issue appearing on the Raptor switches, as they have a significantly stronger magnet, which fully saturates (i.e. maxes out) the hall effect sensor before it is fully pressed. So to the firmware, there's no difference between e.g. 3.8mm pressed vs 4mm pressed vs pressing it in harder and getting further travel

smoky cloak
#

Hi simon, so the thing is 2 days ago i couldnt actuate my win key properly because it was on 4.0mm and was only actuating at 3.8mm iirc, then i replugged the keyboard and it was fixed.

covert lodge
#

To answer why it gets fixed by replugging, that is because the firmware resets the end of press calibration every time the keyboard restarts. In general, the wiggle of the switches will result in the analog signal being lower when compared to pressing the key normally on the center of the keycap, so it is in general not that surprising that you'll see the signal pulling up a little bit when wiggling

#

Currently, the beta firmware has no limit to the end value calibration, so if you press in the key very hard, it's likely you're pushing the key into the plate further, making it closer to the sensor. So you're effectively making it have e.g. 4.3mm travel rather than 4mm. So then, when you press it normally, it thinks that it isn't fully pressed, because you've pressed it in so hard it thinks that is where the end of the press is

#

So with that, then you'll see it not actuate properly normally when the actuation is set to 4mm, because it thinks it's not fully pressed due to it being pressed in further than that before

smoky cloak
#

Yes, but im not even pressing the key that hard as shown in the video

covert lodge
#

It doesn't matter if you're not pressing the key that hard in the video, if it was pressed in hard before, it will have adjusted the end value calibration

smoky cloak
#

Is this really an issue? i wanted to know if something was wrong on my side really

smoky cloak
covert lodge
#

The only way this will happen, is if the keyboard got a significantly higher signal for that key, compared to what it gets when it's pressed normally

smoky cloak
#

Well this happens with all keys with lekker switches

covert lodge
#

That could happen if you're pressing it off-center after it has been pressed on the center, as then it may not be fully pressed in and not count as 4mm. In general, the firmware has a mechanism for attempting to ignore the wiggle, so for you to see it happening like this, there has to be a real big difference in the analog signal that it's getting

#

Is your keyboard completely stock? or do you have mods?

smoky cloak
covert lodge
#

Okay, lets continue in DMs to not fill up this thread too much

smoky cloak
#

Alright

normal moss
#

Okay this totally makes sense to me

#

Following this btw, because I have the same kind of issue

covert lodge
normal moss
covert lodge

#

Somewhere in between so far, currently testing a bit to measure more precise values

#

okay so far its getting worse lmao the wiggle is very noticable, somewhere around 3.6-3.7mm currently deviations between 0.1-0.3mm

normal moss
#

Okay I am not able to achieve such worse values lowest is like 3.8 ish

smoky cloak
#

We let Simon cook

fierce oasis
#

Tried to read but still questioning.
So it ok that when wiggling it's changing? Or it's not and will be fixed in future?

normal moss
fierce oasis
#

👍

smoky cloak
#

switch wiggle is lekker switch issue if i understand correctly, but if your keys calibration messes up after some time of use (for example after playing osu or other games) this cant be ok and needs to be fixed, lets see how this goes

solar orchid
#

@covert lodge Just met the problem that shafie has... The difference is that I swapped the case to a tofu 60 redux (The plate is still the Wooting stock one). It occurs on C and V key most often, which is my main osu keybinding. Been using it for about 8 months, idk if it's caused by the aging of the hall sensors, or slightly bending on the plate/PCB?

#

how long have u been using the keys

#

pretty sure if u use the keys whole day in osu, it can even become at 3.7mm at max

#

until u replug the keyboard

#

u can get raptor switches until this gets fixed 😂 @solar orchid

#

this is the result with firmware version : v2.6.21-test downgrade

#

the line is pretty straight and after osu (played for 5 minutes) it doesnt go down to 3.8mm

#

like on current beta

smoky cloak
#

Will post the 2.7.2 result in a moment

#

firmware 2.7.2

grizzled veldt
#

what is this on your screenshot?

smoky cloak
#

Erm

grizzled veldt
smoky cloak
#

I dont think its important, thats lekker switch issue that it wiggles like that

grizzled veldt
#

ok

#

and 2.7.2 fix the problem too right?

smoky cloak
#

Im not 100% sure yet, but yes 2.72 and below versions are way way better

grizzled veldt
#

now Simon have all the info and can work on the next beta firmware and try to make a real fix the double clic issue on spacebar i have and the problem you have on 2.7.3 beta

smoky cloak
#

@solar orchid are u on beta firmware?

solar orchid
smoky cloak
#

Thats weird, Im on 2.7.2 now and no longer see the issue. On beta firmware i was seeing the problem in seconds, but on 2.7.2 im playing osu for like 15 minutes, still no issue

#

holding the key, the line is straight, and isnt dropping to 3.7-3.8mm like on beta firmware.

#

@solar orchid if u have this problem on 2.7.2, try downgrade to 2.6.21-test

#

or upgrade to current beta firmware

solar orchid
smoky cloak
#

@solar orchid post your results after downgrade and upgrade please

smoky cloak
#

Update: + and - keys have the problem for some reason, swapped the switches too but doesnt fix, but atleast other keys dont have this issue anymore

#

I think i have tested all keys with lekker switches and compared to 2.7.3 beta, the situation is way better on 2.7.2, but on 3 keys i have still the issue where the actuation comes down to 3.85-3.9 after pressing keys, but this can be improved im sure. @covert lodge

#

on 2.7.3 all keys with lekker switches had this issue.

#

this is result i screenshotted on 2.7.3 beta firmware after pressing the keys for like 20 seconds

#

and this is on 2.7.2

grizzled veldt
#

its day and night

smoky cloak
#

Still a room for improvement

#

but yeah, a big difference

grizzled veldt
#

next firmware will fix double clic and this issue for sure

smoky cloak
#

🙏

solar orchid
#

@grizzled veldt @smoky cloak Have tried the latest beta and 2.6.21 firmware, the issue occurs on both of them, and affects more keys. When I was on 2.7.2 stable, the problem comes to V key most often, others were basically fine. On 2.6.21.downgrade and latest beta some other keys starts floating on the monitor when I wiggle them, and looks V key is still the most "unstable" one.
Firmware I use in the video is 2.6.21.downgrade, tachyon mode on and RGB set to 0%, have had my kb replugged before test.

smoky cloak
#

cant see the video, can u just upload here?

solar orchid

This shows what it acts when I wasn't pressing right on the center of the keycap, should've uploaded it before i went sleeping.
I was focusing on C and V before, actually it also happened with other keys like numbers when i press(v is still the most jumpy in the wiggle test)
Firmware is 2.6.21 test.

I already used the analog app on this thread.

Quick question:

I tried to not press the key but move my finger horizontally on the key and my analog value still gets register. The actuation point is higher so i get no input and that is fine.

But why it regidters analog value if i dont press the key? i mean i only move my finger horizontally without pressing on the key. Just having a low contact and analog value get registered.

Is that what people say about "wobbling" ?

smoky cloak
smoky cloak
#

this is how the wiggle looks like

#

if you press the key and wiggle it

#

note that this screenshot is old and on newer version of beta u wont get this bad of a wiggle in analog monitor

wild cloak
#

This is how it looks like

smoky cloak
#

This is normal, if i touch my kb slightly it will give signal too because magnet is moving

lavish stratus
#

idk if this is the place to talk about this but, if we were to hypothetically push the polling rate on the mcu that already exist in the 60he how far can we achieve maybe 2000hz or even 4000hz?

you think wooting is eventually going to make a 60he V2 having the upgrade of the 8000hz polling rate and the snappy rappy

#

Also, you should be able to workaround this via your Actuation point. Assuming you're not using Continous rapid trigger, then your Actuation point will essentially dictate the start of press deadzone for rapid trigger

but in general, the symptoms you're getting is a general issue that we are investigating internally, so your information is a helpful additional datapoint
