# 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).
