Ion not responding to numeric keys

Recently we've had a strange situation occurring where for some inexplicable reason in the middle of programming the ion suddenly stops recognizing numeric keys, and sometimes, in the middle of trying to form a command, will display the error message that the spacebar is disabled, use Ctrl-G as if the software were being used off line on a PC. We haven't been able to work out quite what key combination led up to this situation, and the only way to regain control of the keyboard has been to power down and restart the console. Anyone else seen this behaviour? How did you rectify it if so?

  • I used to have a small mini keyboard that I plugged into an Element a few years back and it would eventually stop all the keyboards(console and mini keyboard) from functioning. Seemed to do it about 30 min into booting up. I eventually realized that's what it was and tossed it. So it may be something similar. if you unplug the keyboard, does control come back on the console's keyboard?
