New PCB stopped working before finishing my build
Hi, ORDER #16408 here.!
I just recieved my PCB, opened it tested it. And it worked. And by the end of the of filling the PCB with palte and switches (about less than an hour later), when replugging, no signal not recognized, can't type anything. This is the second time actually, because I recieved a 722 from the aftermarket and the PCB turned on first (RGB), then stopped working shortly after. I thought the PCB was defect so ordered a new one from Geon store. And now the same thing is happenning, so I wonder what is going on. Trying another cable, other ports, other keyboards with the same cable, another computer (laptop) and resetting (button below PCB) didn't help in both cases. Please help :).

Help
Hey guys :), did I do something wrong? Where can I get PCB Support on a new PCB I just bought and received from Geon, which isn't working.
Hello,
Sorry for the late reply, but could you please let me know which PCB you used?
Hello! It's the 87H Hotswappable PCB
@Gondolindrim Hello gondo
Can you help me with this issue?
Classic case of static
If two PCBs had the same issue
Tried reflashing or removing switches?
hi sorry just saw this for some reason
sorry how do i reflash exactly? if it's pressing the button below I have, but it didn't change anything, is there something to do after that? I tried installing firmware but never managed to find a guide that made it work
and would you know what could cause static so i can remove the culprit
is it normal that my pcb on my other keyboards do not stop working, is it because they are incased?
I built the pcbs with the switches on my office table bare, so maybe that's a problem? never had the issue before though
There are plenty around, Geon website has one
Idea is to "program it again"
Im sorry Im on mobile at the airport so I cant get the links
Several reasons why this can happen, static being one of them, cold and dry weather, wooden floors
Can be a contributing factor\
