See build environment setup then the make instructions for more information.

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.
