Q1. What is the polling rate?

A: Refers to the transmission frequency per second between the keyboard and the computer. The larger the "polling rate" value, the faster the response speed of the key return.

  (Example: 8000 Hz polling rate provides 0.125 ms response time (1/8000=0.125ms) faster; 1000 Hz polling rate requires 1ms response time (1/1000=1ms) slower.)
