Alternative Controller for HHKB Pro
|
|
===================================
|
|
I wanted to add some features like vi cursor and mouse keys to my [HHKB][HHKB] but its controller is not programmable and
|
|
firmware source code is not open, of course. This means customizing this keyboard needs to replace original
|
|
controller with programmable one. This controller can work with HHKB Professional and Professional 2 model.
|
|
|
|
See [this thread][AltController] in geekhack.org.

##Features
|
|
* Customizable keymap
|
|
* More keymap layers(more Fn keys)
|
|
* Mouse keys
|
|
* USB NKRO
|
|

###Pros
|
|
* No risk: Everything is all reversible
|
|
* Without PCB trace cutting, case mod or any destructives
|
|
* Can keep original controller intact
|
|
* Can change all HHKB behaviour as you like
|
|
|
|
###Cons
|
|
* Void your warranty
|
|
* Lose USB hub function of Pro2
|
|
|
|
##DISCLAIMER
|
|
I'm not a professional of electronics nor MCU programming. This may damage your HHKB.
|
|
And my English writing is poor, I'm not sure I can convey my notions accurately.

|
##Documents
|
|
See [doc/HHKB.txt](doc/HHKB.txt) and files under [doc/](doc/) for internal of HHKB and this controller.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##Build Firmware & Program
|
|
You can choose some combination of hardware and USB protocol stack([LUFA], [PJRC]).
|
|
|
|
### Install Tools
|
|
See [this document](../../doc/build.md).
|
|
|
|
### TMK Alt Controller Board
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.tmk
|
|
|
|
This programs the controller with [dfu-programmer] if the tool is intalled and configured properly.
|
|
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.tmk dfu
|
|
|
|
Push reset button and program with [FLIP]. The tool should be intalled and configured properly.
|
|
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.tmk flip
|
|
|
|
Or you can also program with FLIP GUI.
|
|
|
|
[dfu-programmer]: http://dfu-programmer.sourceforge.net/
|
|
[FLIP]: http://www.atmel.com/tools/FLIP.aspx
|
|
|
|
|
|
### PJRC Teensy++
|
|
Build with [LUFA] USB stack:
|
|
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.lufa
|
|
|
|
or with [PJRC] USB stack:
|
|
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.pjrc
|
|
|
|
Push reset button and program with [Teensy Loader(command line)]. The tool should be intalled and configured properly.
|
|
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.lufa teensy
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.pjrc teensy
|
|
|
|
Or you can also program with [Teensy Loader(GUI)].

[Teensy Loader(GUI)]: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
###AVR Mega with [V-USB]
|
|
Build:
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.vusb
|
|
|
|
Program [USBaspLoader] on MCU with AVR programmer like [AVRISPmkII] and tool like [avrdude].
|
|
|
|
You can programs with [avrdude] once you have programmed [USBaspLoader] on MCU.
|
|
$ make -f Makefile.vusb program
|
|
|

|
|
[avrdude]: http://www.nongnu.org/avrdude/
|
|
|
|
|
|
##How to Customize
|
|
See [tmk_keyboard] documents.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##Hardware
|
|
You have some options for hardware. Development boards with USB AVR family(ATMega32U4, AT90USB1286) like Teensy will work while MegaAVR with V-USB library is also cheapear option for DIY.
|
|
|
|
###1. TMK Alt Controller Board
