Title: Keycool II NKey rollover PS2?
Post by: Naweo on Wed, 19 March 2014, 11:34:18

Does anyone know if the keycool II has integrated PS2 adapter with nkey rollover that allows for infinite repetition of multiply pressed keys?

Example:

asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf (When held down)

and not:

asdffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

Aha, so what repeats multiple keys and which keyboards provide such attribute?

What is the meaning of "implementatio" in this case? Thank you!

Depends on the firmware writer. They can make it output last character only, or what was pressed at the same time.
