Press every single key and make sure it sends the keys you expect. You can use <a href="https://config.qmk.fm/#/test/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">QMK Configurator</a>'s test mode to check your keyboard, even if it doesn't run QMK.</p><h2 id="safety-considerations" tabindex="-1">Safety Considerations <a class="header-anchor" href="#safety-considerations" aria-label="Permalink to "Safety Considerations""></a></h2><p>You probably don't want to "brick" your keyboard, making it impossible to rewrite firmware onto it. Here are some of the parameters to show what things are (and likely aren't) too risky.</p><ul><li>If your keyboard map does not include QK_BOOT, then, to get into DFU mode, you will need to press the reset button on the PCB, which requires unscrewing the bottom.</li><li>Messing with tmk_core / common files might make the keyboard inoperable</li><li>Too large a .hex file is trouble; <code>make dfu</code> will erase the block, test the size (oops, wrong order!), which errors out, failing to flash the keyboard, leaving it in DFU mode. <ul><li>To this end, note that the maximum .hex file size on e.g. Planck is 7000h (28672 decimal)</li></ul></li></ul><div class="language- vp-adaptive-theme"><button title="Copy Code" class="copy"></button><span class="lang"></span><pre class="shiki shiki-themes github-light github-dark vp-code"><code><span class="line"><span>Linking: .build/planck_rev4_cbbrowne.elf [OK]</span></span>\n<span class="line"><span>Creating load file for Flash: .build/planck_rev4_cbbrowne.hex [OK]</span></span>\n<span class="line"><span></span></span>\n<span class="line"><span>Size after:</span></span>\n<span class="line"><span> text data bss dec hex filename</span></span>\n<span class="line"><span> 0 22396 0 22396 577c planck_rev4_cbbrowne.hex</span></span></code></pre></div><ul><li>The above file is of size 22396/577ch, which is less than 28672/7000h</li><li>As long as you have a suitable alternative .hex file around, you can retry, loading that one</li><li>Some of the options you might specify in your keyboard's Makefile consume extra memory; watch out for BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE, MOUSEKEY_ENABLE, EXTRAKEY_ENABLE, CONSOLE_ENABLE</li><li>DFU tools do /not/ allow you to write into the bootloader (unless you throw in an extra fruit salad of options), so there is little risk there.</li><li>EEPROM has around a 100000 (100k) write cycle. You shouldn't rewrite the firmware repeatedly and continually; that'll burn the EEPROM eventually.</li></ul><h2 id="nkro-doesn-t-work" tabindex="-1">NKRO Doesn't work <a class="header-anchor" href="#nkro-doesn-t-work" aria-label="Permalink to "NKRO Doesn't work""></a></h2><p>First you have to compile firmware with the build option <code>NKRO_ENABLE</code> in <strong>Makefile</strong>.</p><p>Try <code>Magic</code> <strong>N</strong> command(<code>LShift+RShift+N</code> by default) when <strong>NKRO</strong> still doesn't work. You can use this command to toggle between <strong>NKRO</strong> and <strong>6KRO</strong> mode temporarily. In some situations <strong>NKRO</strong> doesn't work and you will need to switch to <strong>6KRO</strong> mode, in particular when you are in BIOS.</p><h2 id="trackpoint-needs-reset-circuit-ps-2-mouse-support" tabindex="-1">TrackPoint Needs Reset Circuit (PS/2 Mouse Support) <a class="header-anchor" href="#trackpoint-needs-reset-circuit-ps-2-mouse-support" aria-label="P
