-# Pearl 40%
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Pearl 40% is a keyboard designed by Koobaczech. It uses an Atmel
|
|
|
-ATMEGA32A MCU.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-## Compiling and flashing
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-These instructions are for building and flashing your Pearl 40% without
|
|
|
-Bootmapper Client.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Requirements
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Windows
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-(to be written, help needed)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Mac
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Apart from regular QMK and AVR dependencies you need to install
|
|
|
-`bootloadHID`. You can install it with `homebrew` as follows:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ brew install --HEAD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robertgzr/homebrew-tap/master/bootloadhid.rb
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you don't use `homebrew` you can try following the compiling
|
|
|
-instructions defined below in the Linux section.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Linux
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-For Linux you require all regular QMK dependencies, but make sure you're
|
|
|
-using `gcc-avr` version 4.9 or higher. 4.8 and lower do not contain the
|
|
|
-proper definitions for ATMEGA32A MCUs and QMK will fail while attempting
|
|
|
-to compile a HEX for Pearl 40%.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-E.g. you cannot compile Pearl 40% HEX on a regular Ubuntu 14.04 as
|
|
|
-`gcc-avr` version is maxed to 4.8 on it.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Additionally you need an operational `bootloadHID` binary.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You can install `bootloadHID` by taking the following steps:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ git clone https://github.com/robertgzr/bootloadHID ~/tmp/bootloadHIDsrc
|
|
|
- $ cd ~/tmp/bootloadHIDsrc/commandline
|
|
|
- $ make VENDORID=0x16c0 PRODUCTID=0x05DF # vid and pid for atmega32a
|
|
|
- $ chmod +x bootloadHID && cp bootloadHID /usr/bin/bootloadHID
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Running `which bootloadHID` should return `/usr/bin/bootloadHID`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Compiling
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Enter the QMK root directory and compile a keymap with the following
|
|
|
-command:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- $ make pearl:<keymap>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-where `<keymap>` is a layout directory under the `pearl` directory.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-QMK should compile a HEX (called `pearl_<keymap>.hex`) for you, which
|
|
|
-you can flash using `bootloadHID`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Flashing
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To enable Pearl 40% bootloading mode, unplug the keyboard, then plug it
|
|
|
-in while holding `Esc` at the same time (the top-leftmost switch on the
|
|
|
-PCB, next to the USB connector). Once the board is in bootload mode,
|
|
|
-issue the following command (you might require `sudo` to perform the
|
|
|
-command):
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- # assuming we're still in the QMK root dir where you compiled a HEX into
|
|
|
- $ bootloadHID -r ./pearl_<keymap>.hex
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You should see something similar to
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- > Page size = <value>
|
|
|
- > Device size = <value>; <value> remaining
|
|
|
- > Uploading <value> bytes starting at 0 (0x0)
|
|
|
- > <value> ... <current value>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-where `<current value>` should be slowly increasing as the HEX is being
|
|
|
-flashed to the board. If there is some warning about `resource busy` it
|
|
|
-should still work OK.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Once done the board underglow should turn red and the new firmware has
|
|
|
-been flashed. If you can't type on the board try plugging it in again
|
|
|
-(without holding any keys to prevent accidentally setting it into
|
|
|
-bootload mode again).
