+kinesis-advantage keyboard firmware
+======================
+
+This directory is called alvicstep because https://github.com/alvicstep did the heavy work and took the photos in the doc directory.
+alvicstep did NOT do anything related to the QMK implementation, so don't bug him/her. 
+
+There are other ways of replacing the CPU in the kinesis, this one uses jumper wires from the Teensy to the original DIP socket
+
+
+## Kinesis specific information
+This is a port of https://github.com/alvicstep/tmk_keyboard, 
+which is a fork of https://github.com/wjanssens/tmk_keyboard, 
+which is based on work from https://github.com/chrisandreae/keyboard-firmware
+
+If you replace the kinesis CPU as described in the doc folder, then this code should allow you to use QMK. 
+I've tested with a Teensy 2++, remember to change the CPU if you use a 32u4 instead. 
+
+Not yet implemented: 
+- Kinesis EEProm reading or writing
+- Audio - this should be simple if we remove hardcoded pins from audio.h and switch to E7
+
+
+
+## Quantum MK Firmware
+
+For the full Quantum feature list, see [the parent readme.md](/doc/readme.md).
+
+## Building
+
+Download or clone the whole firmware and navigate to the keyboards/kinesis-advantage folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type `make` to generate your .hex - you can then use the Teensy Loader to program your .hex file. 
+
+Depending on which keymap you would like to use, you will have to compile slightly differently.
+
+### Default
+
+To build with the default keymap, simply run `make`.
+
+### Other Keymaps
+
+Several version of keymap are available in advance but you are recommended to define your favorite layout yourself. To define your own keymap create a folder with the name of your keymap in the keymaps folder, and see keymap documentation (you can find in top readme.md) and existant keymap files.
+
+To build the firmware binary hex file with a keymap just do `make` with `keymap` option like:
+
+$ make keymap=[default|jack|<name>]
+

-kinesis-advantage keyboard firmware
-======================
+# Firmware for the Kinesis advantage keyboard
 
-## Kinesis specific information
-This is a port of https://github.com/alvicstep/tmk_keyboard, 
-which is a fork of https://github.com/wjanssens/tmk_keyboard, 
-which is based on work from https://github.com/chrisandreae/keyboard-firmware
+There are at least two different ways to replace the controller in this keyboard.
 
-If you replace the kinesis CPU as described in the doc folder, then this code should allow you to use QMK. 
-I've tested with a Teensy 2++, remember to change the CPU if you use a 32u4 instead. 
+The Stapelberg folder contains the docs and configuration for using the custom controller created by Michael Stapelberg.
 
-Not yet implemented: 
-- Kinesis EEProm reading or writing
-- Audio - this should be simple if we remove hardcoded pins from audio.h and switch to E7
+The alvicstep folder contains docs and configuration for directly wiring a  Teensy2++ to the existing controller board. This follows the pinouts described in https://github.com/alvicstep/tmk_keyboard, which is where the name comes from. 
+
+## Keymaps
+Both hardware solutions should work with the same keymaps
 
 
-
-## Quantum MK Firmware
-
-For the full Quantum feature list, see [the parent readme.md](/doc/readme.md).
-
-## Building
-
-Download or clone the whole firmware and navigate to the keyboards/kinesis-advantage folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type `make` to generate your .hex - you can then use the Teensy Loader to program your .hex file. 
-
-Depending on which keymap you would like to use, you will have to compile slightly differently.
-
-### Default
-
-To build with the default keymap, simply run `make default`.
-
-### Other Keymaps
-
-Several version of keymap are available in advance but you are recommended to define your favorite layout yourself. To define your own keymap create a folder with the name of your keymap in the keymaps folder, and see keymap documentation (you can find in top readme.md) and existant keymap files.
-
-To build the firmware binary hex file with a keymap just do `make` with a keymap like this:
-
-```
-$ make [default|jack|<name>]
-```
-
-Keymaps follow the format **__keymap.c__** and are stored in folders in the `keymaps` folder, eg `keymaps/my_keymap/`

+# kinesis_stapelberg keyboard firmware
+
+This folder contains the firmware customization required to run QMK on the custom controller for the Kinesis Advantage created by Michael Stapelberg.
+It differs from the `alvicstep keyboard in that the existing QMK Kinesis Advantage project uses the existing controller board provided by Kinesis.
+
+The controller board hardware is described
+[here](http://michael.stapelberg.de/Artikel/kinesis_custom_controller)
+
+Mapping the pin assignments was done using the corresponding matrix description provided at this
+[link](https://github.com/stapelberg/kinesis-firmware/blob/master/kb_kinesis/config.kspec)
+
+This code makes no attempt to drive the four LEDs provided on the controller board.
+
+
+## Building the Hardware
+
+If you want to perform this customization, these parts may be helpful.
+
+| Function                                               | Quantity | Vendor   | Part Number  |
+| ------------------------------------------------------ | -------- | -------  | ------------ |
+| 13 pin connector for function keys and finger keywells | 4        | Digi-Key | WM14526-ND   |
+| 10 pin headers for thumb clusters                      | 4        | Digi-Key | 609-3250-ND  |
+| 8 pin cable for thumb clusters                         | 2        | Digi-Key | SAM8928-ND   |
+| Teensy++ 2.0                                           | 1        | Digi-Key | 1528-1056-ND |
+| 2 pin right angle header for reset                     | 1        | Digi-Key | 3M9467-ND    |
+| Reset cables                                           | 2        | Sparkfun | PRT-09140    |
+
+The board and connections are shown here
+![](images/controller_board.jpg)
+
+The Teensy mounting detail can be seen here.
+I used a socket for prototyping.
+![](images/teensy_detail.jpg)
+
+
+Since the proper mounting of the Teensy board places the reset button in a tight space, I added a 2-pin header to the reset and ground pins on the edge of the board.
+Shorting these two pins together will reset the board.
+I also put female to male header jumper cables on these so they could be accessed outside the enclosure.
+The exterior cables can be seen here.

+
+
+## Keymaps
+
+### Default
+
+To build with the default keymap, run `make default` while in the
+`kinesis_stapelberg` working directory.
+
+### Dvorak
+
+This keymap contains a dvorak implementation as well as media and symbol layers.
+
+Run `make dvorak` while in the `kinesis_stapelberg` working directory.
