Update.
I noticed the manual says the following: Note that the component will only
work properly with the version 12 (0xC) 7i73 firmware.
I suppose the manual is older than firmware 14 but I have to ask, could it
be that I need firmware 12 instead of 14?
Thank you.
No, version 14 is current and correct

Sorry I meant to say I unplugged P1.

Well I just checked things with halscope and some keys are working
perfectly but others are not.
Another problem I find is that matrix_kb is always sensing row 3/col 1 as
true. I unplugged the connector from the P2 port on the 7i73 and the same
happens. I have firmware number 14 installed on the board. Jumpers are ok
for 8x8 matrix (w5 up and w6 down).
Should I upgrade the firmware just to check ?
What I find strange is that halscope is detecting the change in the
keycode pin.

So if I understand correctly, the 7i73.keycode pin is too fast to simply
check it with halmeter by eye. But should I see the changes in halscope?
Yes halscope will see any changes
