Firmware for Remap

Once you have confirmed that all keys are working, download the firmware that suits you needs.

*** Do not connect or disconnect the TRRS cable while the USB is connected. *** Note: keep the toggle switch in the ADD unit towards the palm of your hand.

The key highlighted in the picture can be substituted for the Raspberry Pi Pico BOOT button. By pressing it while connecting the USB cable to a PC, a folder named RPI-RP2 will appear, and you can drag and drop uf2 firmware files to it.

Note: If you use a split keyboard, both sides need to be updated. Note: while there are two TRRS connectors, you just need to use one.

Switching between left and right (SOLO case)

The default configuration is QWERTY for right-handed users. It is possible to select a left-handed keymap with the toggle switch. Even if you do not have the ADD unit, you can toggle between left and right-hand keymaps with the key combination depicted below.

Mouse layer and auto mouse

Assuming that you are using a trackball SIDE unit, just after the trackball has moved, you can use the key F (resp. J) as mouse click, and D (resp. K) as right click.
