Default Re: Mk14 vdu

This is the problem, as the firmware gets closer to perfect, any outstanding issues become correspondingly harder to catch in the act and it is unfortunately then down to us to try to narrow the 'when it happens' to an absolutely specific set of circumstances to give Karen any chance of working it out, since she isn't able to observe the problems at first hand or immediately observe the effect of any changes.

With regard to the Pi uploader, removing that if... statement from 'PressMK14Key()' may have shortened the interval between each key press by a very small amount of time compared to the previous version of the script, which in turn may have increased the keying speed slightly. I think I noticed the same thing and had to raise the delay constants a little bit on the current version of the script, over and above those which had always worked for me on older versions.
