Simple K95 Keyboard Macro Help

[ioconnor]

First off I think the PDF manuals for all the keyboards should be referenced from the FAQ.

 

So I'm on linux. No software drivers. I want to use the software built into the keyboard to enter aaa by itself. So I press:

 

'MR','G1','a','a','a','MR' ---This fails when I hit 'G1' hoping for it to enter 'aaa'

'MR','G1','a','a','a','G1','MR'--- fails

'MR','a','a','a','G1','MR' --- fails.

 

What's the correct way to record a macro the keyboard can replay regardless of the computer it is connected to?

[Toasted]

You will need to save the profile to the K95 and enable hardware playback. Then try G1 and see if it works.

Surely you are joking! What's the point of having the 'MR', memory record, key if it can not be used to record? I don't want to find a windows computer every time I want to program my keyboard!

[Toasted]

The MR button works when the software (K95hid.exe) is running. I know the software solution for the keyboard isn't great, but hopefully support for other OS apart from Windows

will be available.

Trick here is (like with macro's for Logitech G19) to add delays in between keystrokes.

 

I set the default delay to 20 ms during recording and that works. If there are no delays keystrokes simply don't get processed.

 

If required (e.g. with ~) you can increase delay to 100 ms. to allow battlefield to open up the console before typing a command.
