What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

- I plugged the keyboard into USB3 slot and doesn't work.
- I reset the keyboard on the back with a pin while plugged, held it for 10 seconds did not work.
- I reset the keyboard while unplugged and did not work
The only thing that worked for me was unplug the keyboard and left it like that overnight and came back to plug it and it started working again. So I left the computer on with the keyboard plugged in and LED turned off with (Fn + D). I came back to the computer about 2 hours later and keyboard stopped working. So now I unplugged the keyboard and leaving it for hours. I'm pretty sure... I shouldn't have to unplug my keyboard for hours to make it work... Never had to do that with cheap Logitech keyboards. Does anybody have any idea how to fix this or should I consider this a defect and return it back? I waited... 3 months to get it and so sad I have to send it back in 2 days...
