After 2/3 weeks of use my 7/8/9 (numeric) keys are quite unusable.
There is a weak response from them : clic twice to be sure that the first keyed key is entered... It seems that there is a first clic that does not work and I have to insist to get the 7/8/9 to be registered. But look at the display guy and be carefull when you type !
Yes but there is a problem on the display too: a dust seemed to be inside so I use a standard screen cleaning, the one I use use for my PC, my IPad... etc... but I have now a kind of stain on DM41X display.
I don't talk about the yellow key vanishing and becoming black, yellow you said ?
Not really the DM42, even if I know the DM41X device is a BETA.
Little bit confused.
Anyone else having this kind of issues ?

Re: Keys 7, 8 and 9 Are not working.
I have a couple of keys that don't register well, '1' in particular, in my case.
am hoping to try a new foil when Michael gets some.

By my side just the 7,8,9 row.
I did use a foam to compensate and try to solve this, with no success...

Re: Keys 7, 8 and 9 Are not working.
I have the problem with many keys. I have already opened the machine several times to work the domes. Nothing does it.
I also have a dust under the glass on the screen. We’ll have to take it off and clean it.
As for the yellow key, it became definitely black.
Finally it's a bad choice to put two domes under the "RETURN" key.
Beta beta beta !!! ===>good good good ???

I wont try that again, keep my DM42 by my side and I would buy a second one when it's available ... After the Covid19
Still a fan of SwissMicros anyway, but the DM41X is a real specie to dompt !

Classic franglais
"Espèce à dompter" → "species to tame" or words to that effect.
There are only 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who do not.

OIC. We always used more English in our franglais, something like this: Espess a taymay (infinitive "to tame")grsbanks wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 6:20 pmClassic franglais
