Hmmm, okay I see your point Wayne.

Might be asking the wrong question, it might be "what could be causing those bit 5 characters to be decoded & printed incorrectly?" IOW, the code may be getting sent correctly but decoded incorrectly. That the characters have a common denominator in the type box sounds suspicious.

Subject: [GreenKeys] Model 28 with a new problem
______________________________________________________________So I got the code bar 3 issue fixed as far as I can tell. I can see all five code bars shifting back & forth.
But now there is a new issue...
A types as WE types as ZI types as PS types as YU types as Q
3 types as quotation mark7 types as 18 types as 0Dash types as 2STOP types as hashtagSpacebar types as HLine feed types as L
Now I was sleuthing the bit codes for all those keys and from what I see, the common denominator is bit 5.
On those keys, a bit 5 SPACE is being turned into a MARK. On other characters where bit 5 is *supposed* to be a Mark, they are typing fine.
AND... it's not doing it on ALL the keys where switching bit5 from S to M would change the character. For example, typing C does not change to V.
I can also see that these affected characters happen to lie in the center four columns on each side of the typebox (middle four for the FIGS section, & middle four for the LTRS section.)
The bit 5 code bar is NOT stuck. I can see it freely running back & forth between M & S.
So the question is: what could be causing a MARK to be sent on bit 5 in cases where it should be a SPACE?
Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions appreciated
