@LEHLE Thanks for taking the time to reply here and for being active in the thread, I appreciate the support.
I spent some more time experimenting with the pedal today and I finally managed to get the behavior I was originally expecting. What worked for me was repeating the calibration process from the manual, but paying a bit more attention to how the pressure is applied during the calibration step.
In my case, the important part (and this is not in the manual, but it’s mentioned in that other thread) was to press really hard during the calibration step for the 10K output, and to press on the right side of the pedal rather than the left. Pressing on the left side didn’t really seem to register anything for me, but once I pressed firmly on the right side (where the sensor appears to be) and really pushed during calibration, the pedal remembered that position correctly.
After doing that, the toe switch now behaves the way I expected: normal pressure works for expression, and a clearly harder press (again on the right side) is required to trigger the switch.
Adjusting the switch threshold in Lehle Verwalter didn’t seem to change much on my end. Even on the hardest setting it would still trigger quite easily, while the calibration process from the manual (+ hard press on the right side, which could be a useful addition to the manual) ultimately solved it for me.
In any case, thanks again for the help and for being present here in the discussion. It’s a great pedal, and hopefully these discussions also help others.
Please let me know if what I said makes sense or if you have anything to add on top of it?
Best!
