# CMDR keyboard 42 (swedish layout)

_This HW(PCB) was original made for use with the TeensyLC module and is reused by patching it to fit the rp2040-zero module_

## Firmware features
|
||
|
||
- 42 key split layout (36 finger keys + 6 thumb keys) with a Swedish-centric NKRO HID mapping across three layers.
|
||
- Function layer system with two Fn keys (40/43/44) enabling sticky lock, OS lock and deep modifier combos without ghosting.
|
||
- High-speed matrix scanning (250 µs cadence) with scan-based debounce, per-key press spacing protection and idle/suspend rate throttling.
|
||
- Bootloader entry options including `Fn+Fn+LCtrl+LShift+RShift` runtime chord and power-on detection on button index 0.
|
||
- Status LED heartbeat derived from joystick firmware: startup heartbeat, activity/idle transitions, sticky-state colors, Caps Lock flash, suspend blanking and error signalling.
|
||
- Power-aware USB handling that drops scan frequency 20× during suspend while honouring wake-on-input and immediate resume.
|
||
|
||
## Install script (`install.sh`)
|
||
|
||
The repository includes a host automation helper for the RP2040 firmware.
|
||
|
||
- Quick start: `./install.sh check` (compilation + clippy) or `./install.sh test` (full suite including host-side tests).
|
||
- Flashing: `./install.sh flash --local` for direct UF2 copy on Linux/macOS, or `./install.sh flash --ssh --target user@host --mount /path` for remote deployments.
|
||
- Cleaning: `./install.sh clean` removes cargo artefacts, generated binaries and UF2 images.
|
||
- Prerequisites are validated automatically (Rust toolchain, `thumbv6m-none-eabi`, `cargo-binutils`, `uf2conv.py`, optional SSH settings).
|
||
- Script output uses colour-coded sections for readability and fails fast on missing dependencies or connectivity issues.
|
||
|
||
## Build environment rp2040 Zero
|
||
|
||
Rust embedded, rp2040 HAL
|
||
|
||
- Cargo (cargo.toml)
|
||
- rustup target add thumbv6m-none-eabi
|
||
- Use install script to flash device
|
||
- Flashing via rp2040 USB bootloader
|
||
- Pressing reset/boot button on rp2040 Zero board
|
||
- Pressing upper left corner on the keyboard when connecting the usb cable
|
||
- Pressing Fn+Fn+Shift+Shift+Ctrl
|
||
|
