| + | It is essential that DigiKeyboard.update() is called regularly (the beginning of the loop is good) to maintain USB communication. Using DigiKeyboard.delay() will automatically spam DigiKeyboard.update() calls during the delay period. If your loop code is fast just using DigiKeyboard.delay() will be sufficient. | ||
