|
|
### Important Note:
|
|
**This PCB supports the VIA configurator, and this is the recommended way to configure the keymap on this keyboard. Building the firmware should only be necessary if you would like to change the colours of the front LEDs in indicator mode.**
|
|
|
|
**For more information about the VIA configurator, [see here](https://caniusevia.com/).**

# Front LED Operation
|
|
|
|
The MxSS PCB has 2 front RGB LEDs which has a separate brightness and mode of operation to the rest of the RGB LEDs. These are controlled through the supplied custom keycodes.
|
|
|
|
There are 3 modes of operation:
|
|
|
|
- FLED_OFF - Front LEDs stay off
|
|
- FLED_RGB - Front LEDs are part of the standard RGB LED modes, only works correctly with rainbow modes (will fix on request)
|
|
- FLED_INDI - Top front LED represents Caps Lock status, bottom LED represents current layer
|
|
|
|
Colors for FLED_INDI mode are hardcoded as hue/saturation values, the caps lock color can be found in mxss_frontled.h, the layer colors are defined in keymap.c (see default/keymap.c for example).
|
|
|
|
## Custom Keycodes
|
|
|
|
- FLED_MOD - Cycle between the 3 modes (FLED_OFF -> FLED_RGB -> FLED_INDI)
|
|
- FLED_VAI - Increase front LED brightness
|
|
- FLED_VAD - Decrease front LED brightness
|
|
|
|
# Further Notes
|
|
|
|
As SAFE_RANGE is used for defining the custom keycodes seen above, please use NEW_SAFE_RANGE as the starting value for any custom keycodes in keymap.c, as per the example.
