VKB-SIM

I am very confused

The website download has v2.16.0 as the latest version of the vkb config software which I've been using, I was looking to expand my controls with some mode buttons but according to the manual that was added in v2.18

which I cant find anywhere. But clearly other people have it as they've been setting things up without issue. Why cant I find v2.18 of the config tool? I am genuinely confused.

Firmware version 2.16.5 is the latest stable. If you want to try beta firmware check here. Be advised that you'll have to match the firmware with software for compatibility.

Manual versions are also not synchronous with firmware versions. Modal switches are present in firmware 2.16. They have only been documented in manual 2.18.
