Bootloader

Enter the bootloader in 3 ways:

  • Bootmagic reset: Hold down the top left key on the left half (or the top right key on the right half) and plug in the controller on that side.
  • Physical reset button: Briefly press the reset button soldered on the PCB.
  • Keycode in layout: Press the key mapped to QK_BOOT if it is configured.

Swapped Pins

If you printed one of the PCB variant with swapped letters Q and B / P and N, add the following code to your keymap's config.h to swap pins E6 and D7 in the firmware:

#undef DIRECT_PINS
#define DIRECT_PINS { \
    { D7, F7, F6, F5, F4 }, \
    { B1, B3, B2, B6, D3 }, \
    { D1, D0, D4, C6, E6 }, \
    { B4, B5, NO_PIN, NO_PIN, NO_PIN } \
}
#undef DIRECT_PINS_RIGHT
#define DIRECT_PINS_RIGHT { \
    { F4, F5, F6, F7, D7 }, \
    { D3, B6, B2, B3, B1 }, \
    { E6, C6, D4, D0, D1 }, \
    { B5, B4, NO_PIN, NO_PIN, NO_PIN } \
}
