# Iron180 QMK firmware folder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
This is the QMK Firmware repository for the Iron180 PCB, a keyboard designed by [Smith and Rune](https://smithrune.com/) and PCB designed by [Gondolindrim](http://github.com/Gondolindrim).
|
|
|
|
The Iron180 PCB is a F13 TKL PCB with ALPS switches support. It also supports in-switch single-color LEDs and a multi-layout design for default or 7U bottom row, ISO layout, split backspace and right shift.
|
|
|
|
As of november 2021, the Group Buy of Iron180 is already over and extras were not sold yet. See the [GB page](https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=109513) for more information.

## How to flash
|
|
|
|
### Enter bootloader
|
|
|
|
The DFU state in the bootloader can be accessed in 3 ways:
|
|
|
|
* **Bootmagic reset**: Hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard with the key pressed;
|
|
* **Physical reset button**: press the button on the front of the PCB, next to caps lock, for at least five seconds;
|
|
* **Keycode in layout**: Press the key mapped to `QK_BOOT` if it is available (ESCAPE key in layer 1 of the default layout);
|
|
|
|
## Compile firmware and flash
|
|
|
|
To build the default layout for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment), use:
|
|
|
|
make iron180:default
|
|
|
|
Then, after accessing the DFU state, use a tool like `dfu-util` or the QMK Toolbox to download that firmware into your PCB. To directly compile-and-flash the PCB after it is put into a DFU state, use
|
|
|
|
make iron180:default:flash
|
|
|
|
See the [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) and the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information. Brand new to QMK? Start with our [Complete Newbs Guide](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs).

## The 'caps lock backlight' feature
|
|
|
|
The Iron180 firmware allows the user to adjust the backlight according to the caps lock key. This will toggle *all backlight LEDs* according to caps lock, enabling backlight when caps is on and disabling when it is off.
|
|
|
|
This option is specially useful if you are only interested in the caps lock LED and want it to work as an indicator; however, it must be noted that this works keyboard-wide, so if that is your case you should only solder the caps lock key LED and none else.
|
|
|
|
This option is disabled by default; in order to enable it, you must un-comment the last line in `config.h`:
|
|
|
|
// Turn backlight on-off according to capslock
|
|
#define CAPSLOCK_BACKLIGHT
|
|
|
|
Then compile and flash the firmware.
