Modified HID Code Set

+
+

+Mainly HID page 7, with additions to support internal features, media keys, and power keys.
+Codes in italics are used internally by the converter, and are not output.
+Codes with highlight are output, but may not be supported by all OS (notably Windows).
+Media and Power codes are translated to the correct code page before being output.

Config v0.997+

+
+ +
+ +
+ + +

Overview

+
+ +

This diagram gives an simplified view of the processing stages inside the converter:
+

+

The first stage is a fixed translation into HID codes, that cannot be modified by the config. The goal of this stage is + to map into a reasonable base set of codes for further remapping, and to try and ensure that each key on the keyboard + results in a unique HID code after this stage.

+

The second stage combines remapping and layer functions, since layers are simply alternate remappings.

+

The third stage is macro expansion.

+

The final stage separates out the internal commands such as SELECTn and BOOT etc. and routes them appropriately, and + also converts the HIDX codes back into standard HID codes for the keyboard, media, and power code pages.

+ + +

Command Reference

+
+ +

force

+
+

The force command disables the auto-detection of keyboard type. It is only very rarely needed!

+
force {set1|set2|set3|set2ext}
+
+

Example:

+
force set2
+
+ +

include

+
+

The include command processes another file, exactly as if it was copy-pasted to where the include command is.

+
include <file_name>
+
+

Quotation marks are optional unless the file name contains spaces.

+

Example:

+
include "colemak.sc"
+
+ +

ifselect

+
+

+Groups of settings can be toggled by using the ifselect command and defining remaps or macros that output the SELECT_0 to SELECT_7 codes.

+
ifselect {<select_num> | any}
+
+

+When any of the SELECT codes are output the entire config is reloaded, and the ifselect commands choose which blocks will be applied.
+When the converter powers-up, all selects, except select 0, are inactive.
+Multiple selects can be active at a time.
+Select 0 is special - it is always active, and when SELECT_0 is output it resets all the other selects. +

+

Blocks following ifselect <select_num>, up to the next ifselect, are applied only if the specified select is active.

+

Blocks following ifselect any, up to the next ifselect, are applied regardless of which selects are active.

+

Example:

+
# toggle between qwerty and colemak by pressing scroll lock
+
+ifselect 1
+include colemak.sc
+
+ifselect any
+remapblock
+    SCROLL_LOCK SELECT_1
+endblock
+
+ +

ifset

+
+

Blocks following the ifset command are only applied if using one of the specified sets.

+
ifset [set1] [set2] [set3] [set2ext] [any]
+
+

Example:

+
ifset set1 set2
+
+ +

ifkeyboard

+
+

Blocks following the ifkeyboard command are only applied if the keyboard has the specified ID.
+

ifkeyboard {<keyboard_id> | any}
+
+

The keyboard ID is given in hexadecimal.

+

See the Troubleshooting section for details of how to find out the ID of your keyboard.

+

Example:

+
ifkeyboard BABA
+
+ +

layerblock

+
+

Layerblocks define combinations of function keys to access different layers.

+
layerblock
+    <fn_key_combo> <layer_num>
+    ...
+endblock
+
+

Function keys are defined by remapping keys to codes FN1 to FN8.

+

Example:

+
layerblock
+    FN1 1
+    FN2 1
+    FN1 FN2 2
+endblock
+
+remapblock
+    LGUI FN1
+    RGUI FN2
+endblock
+
+ +

remapblock

+
+

Remapblocks define remappings either for the base layer, or for the specified +layer if a layer command is given inside the block.

+
remapblock
+    [layer <layer_num>]
+    <from_hid> <to_hid>
+    ...
+endblock
+
+

Example:

+
# swap capslock and backspace
+
+remapblock
+    CAPS_LOCK BACKSPACE
+    BACKSPACE CAPS_LOCK
+endblock
+
+ +

macroblock

+
+

Macroblocks define one or more macros. Macros are triggered by a single HID +key with any combination of metas, and can have command blocks that execute +on make and/or break of the HID key.

+
macroblock
+    macro <hid> [[-][{l|r}]shift] [[-][{l|r}]ctrl] [[-][{l|r}]alt] [[-][{l|r}]gui] ...
+    [
+        <command> [<value>]
+        ...
+    ]
+    [onbreak [norestoremeta]
+        <command> [<value>]
+        ...
+    ]
+    endmacro
+    ...
+endblock
+
+ +

Example:

+
macroblock
+  macro SCROLL_LOCK LSHIFT LCTRL -ALT
+    PUSH_META CLEAR_META all    # save and clear all metas
+    PRESS p                     # press some keys...
+    PRESS i
+    PRESS N                     # case is ignored - this results in lowercase 'n'
+    SET_META lshift             # you have to set modifiers yourself
+    PRESS g                     # results in a capital 'G', since shift is set
+    POP_ALL_META                # restore metas that were active before
+  endmacro
+endblock
+
+ +
Macro Commands
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
CommandDescription
NOPDoes nothing
PRESS <hid>Shorthand for MAKE <hid> then BREAK <hid>
MAKE <hid>Set keystate to 'down'
BREAK <hid>Set keystate to 'up'
ASSIGN_META <metas>Set all metas to the state specified
SET_META <metas>Set specified metas to down state
CLEAR_META <metas>Set specified metas to up state
TOGGLE_META <metas>Set specified metas to inverse of current state
POP_METARestore metas from the time of the last PUSH_META
POP_ALL_METARestore metas from the time of the first PUSH_META
DELAY <delay_in_ms>Delay by the specified number of milliseconds
CLEAR_ALL(internal use e.g. when buffer overrun is received)
BOOTCause the converter to jump to the bootloader v1.0+
PUSH_META <cmd> <value>Save metas for later. Combines with other commands
+ +
Macro trigger matching
+ +

+Macros are triggered only when the state matches for all of the the specified metas.
+If a particular meta is not specified, its state is not matched.
+

+ + + + + + + +
MetaTrigger condition
LSHIFTLSHIFT is pressed
RSHIFTRSHIFT is pressed
SHIFTEither LSHIFT or RSHIFT is pressed
-LSHIFTLSHIFT is not pressed
+ +

+When looking for a match, macros are checked in the order they appear in the config file.
+The first matching macro found (if any) is executed, so you sometimes need to take of what order the macros are in. +

+
macroblock
+  macro SCROLL_LOCK LSHIFT           # this macro will execute even if LCTRL is down, so...
+    ...
+  endmacro
+  macro SCROLL_LOCK LSHIFT LCTRL     # ... this macro will never execute!
+    ...
+  endmacro
+endblock
+
+

The correct order would be:

+
macroblock
+  macro SCROLL_LOCK LSHIFT LCTRL
+    ...
+  endmacro
+  macro SCROLL_LOCK LSHIFT
+    ...
+  endmacro
+endblock
+
+ +

Layerblocks define combinations of function keys to access different layers.
+(Function keys are defined by remapping one or more keys to pseudo-HID codes FN1 to FN8).

+
layerblock
+    <fn_key_combo> <layer_num>
+    ...
+endblock
+

Firmware

+
+ +
+ +
+ + +

CPUs

+
+

The firmware has been compiled for the following CPUs, listed roughly in order of preference:

+

+ + + + + +
CPUKnown breakout board(s)
ATmega32U4Teensy 2.0, Adafruit Atmega32u4 Breakout Board
AT90USB1286Teensy++ 2.0
AT90USB646 v1.0+Teensy++ (no longer available)
ATmega16U4 v1.0+???

+ +

Make sure you pick the right .hex file for your dev board!

+ +

ATmega32U4 breakout boards are usually the best choice, on a price basis.

+ +

AT90USB1286 boards work equally as well, and have more memory (which can be essential if you want to set up a very large number of layers and/or macros), but cost more.

+ +

Note: the ATmega16U4 build is very close to 16KB in size, and probably does not leave room for a USB bootloader on the chip.
+So, ATmega16U4 based breakout boards are not recommended for novices!

+ +

Loading

+
+

+The Teensy family have the PJRC bootloader installed and are programmed using PJRC's Teensy Loader, available for all common OS. +

+

+Other breakout boards usually have the Atmel DFU bootloader installed and can be programmed using FLIP.
+FLIP is available for Windows and Linux. For Mac OS-X, see this guide on how use DFU-programmer. +

+

Parts List

+
+

Essential items:

+ + +

Optional items, as desired:

+ + +

You could, of course, mount the Teensy inside your keyboard and not even need a connector or a box!

+ +

See the firmware section for details of supported AVR processors and breakout boards.

Keyboard Reset v1.1+PB7

See PJRC for Teensy pinouts, or the documentation that came with your chosen breakout board.

+

'Keyboard Reset' is only required for certain PC/XT-like keyboards, such as the Leading Edge DC-2014.

+ + +

Connectors

+
+

I wired mine to a PS/2 socket, and then use adapters to connect the others.

+ +

kbdbabel has masses of connector info. +So much, that it can be hard to find the one you want!

+ +

So I've included the most common connectors used with this converter here.

+ +

Note that all the connectors are shown looking into the socket.

+ +

PC/XT keyboards use a 5 pin, 180 degree, DIN connector. It is the same as the AT connector shown later, except + that pin 3 is defined as a reset signal...

+


+ (from the IBM PC Technical Reference Manual, with correction!)

+ +

Terminal keyboards usually have a 5 pin, 270 degree, DIN connector...
+

+ +

...or sometimes this 8P5C connector...
+

+ +

PC, XT and AT keyboards use the same 5 pin, 180 degree, DIN connector and pinout, +while PS/2 keyboards use a 6 pin mini-DIN connector...
+

+ + +

Pull-up resistors

+
+

In nearly all cases, these resistors are not needed.

+

But, if the keyboard has a very long cable (3m+), I recommend adding two pull-up resistors of 1Kohm - +one between Clock and +5V, the other between Data and +5V. +These can really help to clean up a dirty signal +(see here).

+ + +

LEDs

+
+

Optionally, lock LEDs can be wired up. Useful if your keyboard doesn't have them!
+The outputs are active high (each pin puts out +5V when it wants to light the LED).
+A resistor is needed inline with each LED. (The value needed depends on the type of LED, +1Kohm is a good starting point for modern high-brightness types).

+ +

Here's an example circuit for hooking up an LED, taken from + ladyada.net:
+
+ They also have a more in-depth tutorial.

+
+

The pins used differ between CPUs.

+ +

ATMEGA32U4 (Teensy 2.0) and ATMEGA16U4:

+ + + + + +
LEDCPU Pin
CapsLockPF5
NumLockPF6
ScrollLockPF7
+ +

AT90USB1286 (Teensy++ 2.0) and AT90USB646:

+ + + + + +
LEDCPU Pin
CapsLockPD3
NumLockPD4
ScrollLockPD5
+ + +

Auxiliary Key Inputs v1.1+

+
+ +

Five inputs are provided for auxiliary keys, buttons, or footswitches, which generate codes that can be remapped in your config:

+ + + + + + + +
Auxiliary KeyCodeCPU Pin
1AUX1PB0
2AUX2PB1
3AUX3PB2
4AUX4PB3
5AUX5PB4
+ +

Inputs cause key presses when grounded, so you can simply connect the switch between the pin and ground:

+

+ +

Inputs have the internal pull-up enabled, so an external resistor won't be required in most cases. But + it might be necessary to use one, for example with footswitches where the wires are long. Here's how + you would wire one up:

+

+ + +

Connection Summary for Teensy

+
+ +

The GND and Vcc pins at the end of the Teensy can be used instead of the marked GND and Vcc, if you prefer. + Or you might choose to wire the connector to one GND and the LEDs using the other.

+ +

Of course, not all connections are required! The minimum, and still fairly typical, setup would be to connect + just Ground, +5V, Data and Clock to the connector (or keyboard).
