Keyboard Encoder, I-Pac, KB16, other?

<< < (6/7) > >>

Bottom line on TOKN KB16.
If you need less than 16 inputs as does a single player console,
and you want passthrough, EEPROM, and the LED feature, and you don't
feel like soldering, pick one up on eBay. You'll likely get it under the 20 marker. If you don't like waiting hit tokn.net.
Cheers,
Matt

Q? Keycode propagation from one encoder to encoder is nominal 1ms. Guaranteed < 1.2ms.
How? TOKN KB16 runs a 16Mhz while the other encoders run 4 times slower at 4Mhz.

I'm not aware of any encoders that run as slow as 4mhz, but the speed of the processor has little to do with the speed of the PS/2 port or it's protocol.

How are you prioritizing activity on the bus?

This group of threads was launched by a registered user of
your forum with the primary intent of denigrating a competitor's
product. This type of sleaze marketing is common and unfortunately
a gross misuse of public domain.

See this link to an internet marketing newletter that summarizes these
practices. http://www.apexpacific.com/newsletters/nl2004apr.html

I'll close by stating that I'm leaving
it up to the mediator of this forum and those involved
to examine the user profile registation dates and thread contents
for signs of this type of abuse.

Thank you and best regards,
Mattp

Looks more to me like Squeeky started this thread in search of information on your (TOKN KB16) product and YOU didn't like the factual answers he received.

Also probably as an effort by you to bump the thread to gain recognition for your product rather than contacting Saint through E-mail or on the Website forum.

Saint,

If you read this thread from the top, MattP is the first to denigrate a competitor's product in this thread.

Tiger Heli (who is a CUSTOMER of GroovyGameGear) did a very nice point-by-point, even saying that the TOKN would work well for a 1-P panel.

That was followed up by this completely misleading slam on GGG by Mattp (who DOES have an interest in the TOKN sales)

EEPROM for persistent storage of your settings. Read the fine print.

The "abuse" as he claims it is due in large part to his own attempts to denigrate HIS competitors.

Mattp,

You decided to dig up a thread from April 8th and complain now ??? Seems like the only "denigrating" going on in this "series" of threads is the self-generated denigration of your character as a member of these boards.

If you would like to earn my respect as a board member, I suggest the following:

1. stick to the facts about your product.
2. KISS rule. No-one want to hear some long winded technical explanation that simply could be explained by the term "matrix" ;)
3. Give us laymen a little credit. We are not idiots.
4. Get active in the community, this forum is not just for your advertising use.
5. If you want to take your ball and go home, that's fine. But complain to the mods with PM. It will help your respect rating if you decide to come back.

That is all.
