Quantum MK Firmware
|
|
================================
|
|
This is a keyboard firmware based on the [tmk_keyboard firmware](http://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard) with some useful features for Atmel AVR controller, and more specifically, the OLKB product line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Getting started
|
|
|
|
You can create your own Quantum-based project by using `./new_project.sh <project_name>`, which will create `/keyboard/<project_name>` with all the necessary components for a Quantum project.
|
|
|
|
You have access to a bunch of goodies! Check out the Makefile to enable/disable some of the features. Uncomment the `#` to enable them. Setting them to `no` does nothing and will only confuse future you.
|
|
|
|
BACKLIGHT_ENABLE = yes # Enable keyboard backlight functionality
|
|
MIDI_ENABLE = yes # MIDI controls
|
|
# UNICODE_ENABLE = yes # Unicode support
|
|
BLUETOOTH_ENABLE = yes # Enable Bluetooth with the Adafruit EZ-Key HID
|
|
|
|
### Mod shortcuts
|
|
|
|
* `LSFT(kc)` - applies left shift to *kc* - `S(kc)` is an alias
|
|
* `RSFT(kc)` - applies right shift to *kc*
|
|
* `LCTL(kc)` - applies left control to *kc*
|
|
* `RCTL(kc)` - applies right control to *kc*
|
|
* `LALT(kc)` - applies left alt to *kc*
|
|
* `RALT(kc)` - applies right alt to *kc*
|
|
* `LGUI(kc)` - applies left gui (command/win) to *kc*
|
|
* `RGUI(kc)` - applies right gui (command/win) to *kc*
|
|
|
|
You can also use more than one, like this:
|
|
|
|
LALT(LGUI(KC_ESC))
|
|
|
|
The following shortcuts automatically add `LSFT()` to keycodes to get commonly used symbols. Their long names (see `quantum/keymap_common.h`) are also availble.
|
|
|
|
KC_TILD ~
|
|
KC_EXLM !
|
|
KC_AT @
|
|
KC_HASH #
|
|
KC_DLR $
|
|
KC_PERC %
|
|
KC_CIRC ^
|
|
KC_AMPR &
|
|
KC_ASTR *
|
|
KC_LPRN (
|
|
KC_RPRN )
|
|
KC_UNDS _
|
|
KC_PLUS +
|
|
KC_LCBR {
|
|
KC_RCBR }
|
|
KC_PIPE |
|
|
KC_COLN :
|
|
|
|
### Function shortcuts
|
|
|
|
Instead of using `FNx`, you can use `F(x)` - the benefit here is being able to use more than 32 function layers (up to 4096), if you happen to need them.
|
|
|
|
There are also keycode shortcuts for common actions:
|
|
|
|
* `MO(layer)` - momentary switch to *layer*
|
|
* `DF(layer)` - sets default layer to *layer*
|
|
* `TG(layer)` - toggle between the current layer and *layer*
|
|
* `MT(mod, kc)` - is *mod* when held, and *kc* when tapped
|
|
* `CTL_T(kc)` - is LCTL when held and *kc* when tapped
|
|
* `SFT_T(kc)` - is LSFT when held and *kc* when tapped
|
|
* `ALT_T(kc)` - is LALT when held and *kc* when tapped
|
|
* `GUI_T(kc)` - is LGUI when held and *kc* when tapped
|
|
* `ALL_T(kc)` - is Hyper (all mods) when held and *kc* when tapped
|
|
* `LT(layer, kc)` - momentary switch to *layer* when held, and *kc* when tapped
|
|
|
|
These functions work the same way that their `ACTION_*` functions do, and will require KC_TRNS on the layer being switched to - check out the default keymap for an example.
|
|
|
|
### Additional keycodes for software-implemented layouts (Colemak, Dvorak, etc)
|
|
|
|
Everything is assuming you're in Qwerty (in software) by default, but there is built-in support for using a Colemak or Dvorak layout by including this at the top of your keymap:
|
|
|
|
#include "keymap_<layout>.h"
|
|
|
|
Where <layout> is "colemak" or "dvorak". After including this line, you will get access to:
|
|
|
|
* `CM_*` for all of the Colemak-equivalent characters
|
|
* `DV_*` for all of the Dvorak-equivalent characters
|
|
|
|
These implementations assume you're using Colemak or Dvorak on your OS, not on your keyboard - this is referred to as a software-implemented layout. If your computer is in Qwerty and your keymap is in Colemak or Dvorak, this is referred to as a firmware-implemented layout, and you won't need these features.
|
|
|
|
To give an example, if you're using software-implemented Colemak, and want to get an `F`, you would use `CM_F` - `KC_F` under these same circumstances would result in `T`.
|
|
|
|
### Additional language support
|
|
|
|
In `quantum/keymap_extras/`, you'll see various language files - these work the same way as the alternative layout ones do. Most are defined by their two letter country/language code followed by an underscore and a 4-letter abbrivation of its name. `FR_UGRV` which will result in a `ù` when using a software-implemented AZERTY layout. It's currently difficult to send such characters in just the firmware (but it's being worked on - see Unicode support).
|
|
|
|
### Unicode support
|
|
|
|
You can currently send 4 hex digits with your OS-specific modifier key (RALT for OSX with the "Unicode Hex Input" layout) - this is currently limited to supporting one OS at a time, and requires a recompile for switching. 8 digit hex codes are being worked on. The keycode function is `UC(n)`, where *n* is a 4 digit hexidecimal. Enable from the Makefile.
|
|
|
|
### Macro shortcuts
|
|
|
|
Instead of using the `ACTION_MACRO` function, you can simply use `M(n)` to access macro *n* - *n* will get passed into the `action_get_macro` as the `id`, and you can use a switch statement to filter them. This gets called on the keydown and keyup, so you'll need to use an if statement testing `record->event.pressed` (see keymap_default.c).
|
|
|
|
### Other keyboard shortcut keycodes
|
|
|
|
* `RESET` - puts the MCU in DFU mode for flashing new firmware (with `make dfu`)
|
|
* `DEBUG` - the firmware into debug mode - you'll need hid_listen to see things
|
|
* `BL_ON` - turns the backlight on
|
|
* `BL_OFF` - turns the backlight off
|
|
* `BL_<n>` - sets the backlight to level *n*
|
|
* `BL_INC` - increments the backlight level by one
|
|
* `BL_DEC` - decrements the backlight level by one
|
|
* `BL_TOGG` - toggles the backlight
|
|
* `BL_STEP` - steps through the backlight levels
|
|
|
|
Enable the backlight from the Makefile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### MIDI functionalty
|
|
|
|
This is still a WIP, but check out `quantum/keymap_midi.c` to see what's happening. Enable from the Makefile.
|
|
|
|
### Bluetooth functionality
|
|
|
|
This requires [some hardware changes](https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3psx0q/the_planck_keyboard_with_bluetooth_guide_and/?ref=search_posts), but can be enabled via the Makefile. The firmware will still output characters via USB, so be aware of this when charging via a computer. It would make sense to have a switch on the Bluefruit to turn it off at will.

|
|
|
|
Magic Commands
|
|
--------------
|
|
To see help press `Magic` + `H`.
|
|
|
|
`Magic` key combination is `LShift` + `RShift` in many project, but `Power` key on ADB converter.
|
|
`Magic` keybind can be vary on each project, check `config.h` in project directory.
|
|
|
|
Following commands can be also executed with `Magic` + key. In console mode `Magic` keybind is not needed.

Boot Magic Configuration - Virtual DIP Switch
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
Boot Magic are executed during boot up time. Press Magic key below then plug in keyboard cable.
|
|
Note that you must use keys of **Layer 0** as Magic keys. These settings are stored in EEPROM so that retain your configure over power cycles.
|
|
|
|
To avoid configuring accidentally additive salt key `KC_SPACE` also needs to be pressed along with the following configuration keys. The salt key is configurable in `config.h`. See [tmk_core/common/bootmagic.h](tmk_core/common/bootmagic.h).
|
|
|
|
#### General
|
|
- Skip reading EEPROM to start with default configuration(`ESC`)
|
|
- Clear configuration stored in EEPROM to reset configuration(`Backspace`)
|
|
|
|
#### Bootloader
|
|
- Kick up Bootloader(`B`)
|
|
|
|
#### Debug
|
|
- Debug enable(`D`)
|
|
- Debug matrix enable(`D`+`X`)
|
|
- Debug keyboard enable(`D`+`K`)
|
|
- Debug mouse enable(`D`+`M`)
|
|
|
|
#### Keymap
|
|
- Swap Control and CapsLock(`Left Control`)
|
|
- Change CapsLock to Control(`Caps Lock`)
|
|
- Swap LeftAlt and Gui(`Left Alt`)
|
|
- Swap RightAlt and Gui(`Right Alt`)
|
|
- Disable Gui(`Left Gui`)
|
|

|
|
Mechanical Locking support
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
This feature makes it possible for you to use mechanical locking switch for `CapsLock`, `NumLock`
|
|
or `ScrollLock`. To enable this feature define these macros in `config.h` and use `KC_LCAP`, `KC_LN
|
|
UM` or `KC_LSCR` in keymap for locking key instead of normal `KC_CAPS`, `KC_NLCK` or `KC_SLCK`. Res
|
|
ync option tries to keep switch state consistent with keyboard LED state.
|
|
|
|
#define LOCKING_SUPPORT_ENABLE
|
|
#define LOCKING_RESYNC_ENABLE
|

-----------------------
|
|
**TBD**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debugging
|
|
--------
|
|
Use PJRC's `hid_listen` to see debug messages. You can use the tool for debug even if firmware use LUFA stack.
|
|
|
|
You can use xprintf() to display debug info on `hid_listen`, see `tmk_core/common/xprintf.h`.
