seems to have been updated earlier this year. Are you still using this? Thinking about using a seperate keyboard. Perhaps different software? 

I would suggest buying a Logitech keyboard that is compatible with their G-Hub macro software. It's always being updated and has a ton of community support.

I would say a mechanical keyboard, because it helps prevent key slips and you know when they key has been fully pressed. Also wired.

But whatever fits into your budget. I used the G815 myself.

Thanks for the tips!

This is my keypad and it works great! I used HIDmacros for programming as recommended here.

Is HID Macros still working on DAS? I tried setting it up yesterday using a separate NUM pad and I don't see the keyboard sequence being sent to DAS Trader Pro but the actual KEY.

For example, I programmed "2" on my separate NUM pad to Ctrl + 2 (^2). But it ends up typing "2" on my Montage instead of using the Hotkey Ctrl + 2. It works on Google Chrome tabs though but not DAS.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Danny

I figured. HIDMacros and DAS Trader Pro has to be started as "Run as Adminstrator"
