AKLT Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I understand alot of users are facing this issue where using the caps lock will cause the LEDs to freeze up and become unresponsive. For me it was simply freezing up as i typed along. Not isolated to the caps lock. I used a USB hub device and plugged it into my USB3.0 port and the keyboard jack into the HUB. Keyboard>USB Hub>3.0 Port. Tada~ No more freezes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbobaggins30 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Not sure if that works or not. Disabling Caps Lock and Num Lock seem to be a temporary fix. After talking with technical support today, they are well aware of the issue, and will be pushing a permanent fix via firmware shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inc0gn3gr0 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Best fix so far is creating macros for all the lock and modifier keys and macro them to each button. Essentially recording and press and release of each key. TAB, Caps Lock, LShift, Num lock, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarredMecha Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 What happens if you try using the keyboard while it is plugged into 2 USB 3.0 ports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtGranda Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Unless you are using some kind of super powered HUB you are probably running into power issues. Personally I don't think it's a particularly great idea to attach a device with 120+ LEDs into a hub of any kind. The voltage drop is just too high.
