The Halcyon Kyria rev4 is the fourth Kyria revision and the first keyboard in our Halcyon range. Similar to Aurora, all keyboards in the series share the same feature set. The key highlights:
- Halcyon keyboards come preassembled! You won't need a soldering iron.
- You'll be able to install [VIK](https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/vik) modules.
- It'll come fully documented, which includes the unboxing, assembly (with only a screwdriver), first installation and some advanced use cases.
- Both the connection to the host device as well as the interconnect between the keyboard halves use USB C.
- The controller has full ESD protection on all USB C ports, as well as all switch matrix GPIO!
- The controller is interchangable. If part of your keyboard ever breaks, we can replace just the bits that need replacing.
Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make splitkb/halcyon/kyria:default
The keyboard can be flashed by copying the resulting `.uf2` file onto the `RPI-RP2` flash drive.

## Bootloader
Enter the bootloader in 3 ways:
* **Reset button**: Double-tap the reset button at the top of the controller, right above the USB-C port.
* **Bootloader reset**: Hold down the "Boot" button and plug in the keyboard.
