Well, the voltages seem to be ok. I can turn on all the keys by shorting the physical pins one by one in the flat cable and they will read in HAL with different codes through my component. What I don't know is if the codes are showing right because I don't understand well the way they are created reading the 7i73 manual.
The only problem seems to be the communication with the matrix_kb component and I suspect there's something about that key showing up active at startup. I guess I could make my own component and read the codes and solve the problem but it creeps me out a little bit not knowing what's causing the strange behavior. By the way, with my component there's also a key showing up like pressed at startup but it dissapears once I press another key. El mié., 6 may. 2020 a las 11:04, Peter C.
