Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi all,

I was trying to connect an I2C device as a keyboard, but after typing OPTION KEYBOARD I2C, my screen fills with:
KeyI2C. The device has stopped responding.

Please help.

press and hold boot button while resetting the CPU (reset button or cycle power). This should enable you to reflash the firmware (device appeares in e.g. windows explorer). You may also need to nuke the flash first to remove the option settings.
