      Hi all,
      I own an old Beta innovation card that basically emulate a keyboard when connecting a bunch of push button and/or switches.

      I used to use this card with the old version of Falcon ( since SP3 to AF ) and everything was fine.

      I now started again using Falcon with this wonderful BMS but I’m facing a strange problem.

      I made an ICP with a bunch of push button, connected to this card, and configured to issue the right key when pushing this button.
      For example, when pushing the T-ILS button the card sends out a 1, the ALOW sends the 2 and so on.
      I’ve tested in FOXY Key-tester and it works well ( as it used to do in previous Falcon versions ).

      When I test it in BMS 4.33 ( which ever update I have, now U3 ) in the controller screen I always get the key with the shift.
      To better explain, if the card sends the 1 key ( verified in Foxy KeyTester ) BMS see a SHIFT+1 and so on for all the other keys.

      Any idea on what to check ?

      Thanks in advance.

        I’ve found the problem.

        The problem was that for the ICP buttons I had programmed my KeybEmulator to send out the key precedeed by the NumLock, but this was understood by BMS as shift.

        Removing the NL command everything started to works again…
        Thanks to all.
