Always include a link to the spreadsheet when asking for help.    The problem is often something completely different than what the user thinks it is.

If the mouse pointer moves, the USB connection is functioning at 100%, as far as the Quadstick is concerned.  There will not be a situation where the mouse interface is connected and the keyboard interface is not, at the USB level.

There may be some software installed on your machine that could interfere with things later, but that is not under the control of the quadstick, and I don't know of anything that would do that.

On the zWOW, second mode sheet, these rows will not work correctly, unless the joystick dead-zone shape is square (0).

kb_w	normal	up
kb_a	normal	left
kb_s	normal	down
kb_d	normal	right

Use greater_than when connecting on/off digital outputs to the analog joystick, like was used on Main mouse, Arrows sheet:

kb_left_arrow	greater_than 50	left
kb_right_arrow	greater_than 50	right
kb_up_arrow	greater_than 50	up
kb_down_arrow	greater_than 50	down

It does not have to 50, a smaller value can work fine.

If you are having trouble with sips and puffs not being sensed correctly, make sure the mouthpiece and tubing is clean and clear.  I frequently get quadsticks sent in for repair that just have clogged mouthpieces.

even the default profile it came with, only the mouse is working. none of the keyboard buttons are working, ive restarted my computer so many times, theres not much running once ive restarted it.

it did this when i first got it and then i dont know why but it started working and now its stopped again

[abibliop...@gmail.com]

i dont know what to do, even the mistakes on those profiles, they still worked when i use to use them. the mouth piece is brand new and every now and then i get a sewing needle and clean out the mouth holes

[Fred Davison]

The sip/puff red and blue LEDs follow what the physical sensors do regardless of any configuration.  If the lights turn on and off properly when you apply pressure or suction on the holes of the mouthpiece, the hardware is OK.  If the lights are slow to follow the changes in pressure, then there is a physical obstruction in the airway that needs to be cleaned out.

If the mouse pointer works, the USB is working 100%.  There is no separating the USB functioning between the mouse and the keyboard.   Any difference in the handling is inside the computer, not the quadstick. 

Try a different computer.

when i sip and puff lightly the red light flash on nothing happen then the other profile when you sip and puff lightly it slow and takes awhile to register can i send the video 

[Fred Davison]

If the lights are slow to respond, the airway is blocked and needs to be cleaned.

[Fred Davison]

There could be a lot of different reasons.  Are you sure you are selecting the correct configuration file?

You can display and print a list of the files that are in your quadstick's flash drive in QMP:

Get a list like this, with the LED pattern for each file when selecting different files:

These are the files I think are currently in your quadstick:

awow.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1doGb5OA3kS84FQN0MitukVKEJauFiRNPO3DMmhARSlI	World of Warcraft
mouse.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q5vE1Q8Za_yUsTm2GJTRsP_8VkMsr5VWhJe5d5romks	Mouse2
zWOW.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AekBmz1FRYcoFDKugLe-GxUEAeHox9H_mbzQhd56lnk	zWOW

A default.csv file is not present.  default.csv is a required file.  I suggest you rename mouse.csv to default.csv using the Windows file manager, then restart QMP, print out the list of your config files.

A few days ago the file list looked like this:

default.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q5vE1Q8Za_yUsTm2GJTRsP_8VkMsr5VWhJe5d5romks	Mouse2
fortnite ps4.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12W7Cjko_KiSo5QCFqwMyGXrRjvEfk0BC-QuyBrGKhsE	Beloader Fortnite
fortnite.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11_K72HWZmN76ROA4KJ-Xx2j-ulf23W2Vvp2Dq3N0VXQ	fortnite
mouse2.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b_FPR0aOVRpIEfLhprVPOjjWH5Xbg_esBO3nF5jrefs	main mouse
zdefault.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/142Em6Lyr8zT0f3RNI1rjBw92MQWpehcOAuvU6sHzxds	Default Configuration
zWOW.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AekBmz1FRYcoFDKugLe-GxUEAeHox9H_mbzQhd56lnk	zWOW
zzzzzwow.csv	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xdUDQwevnsbDBOsUxRrj1gxxNHWQKSigb6NZO6oNFmE	yWOW

All the file numbers will be different after those changes.

If you are going to be making wholesale changes to the configuration files, it is possible to make a backup copy of the CSV files to your PC so you can restore them quickly if things go haywire.

[abibliop...@gmail.com]

okay done that no changes still same thing yeah i reset qs to see if that would help

[abibliop...@gmail.com]

on profile 1 mp right puff wont back space but on profile 3 mp right puff scrolls down

[Fred Davison]

Isn't that the opposite situation from what you described a few emails back?

[abibliop...@gmail.com]

[abibliop...@gmail.com]

nope its the same, only the mouse works on every profile not the keyboard.

[abibliop...@gmail.com]
