Building the firmware

Install the build tools.

In the root directory of the repository, build the firmware with a command like:

make ergodone:default

For more information on the layout option and other ones, see the make guide.

Flashing the firmware onto the keyboard

The ErgoDone uses a customized HID bootloader rather than the Teensy one. It doesn't need an OS driver, and the required actions before flashing are a little different than with an ErgoDox.

  1. To enter flash mode, disconnect the keyboard first. Then, on the left-hand device, in the top row, press and hold the two rightmost keys while reconnecting the keyboard. Ergodone Flash Mode

  2. To flash the .hex file, use the hid_bootloader_cli utlity from the TKG Toolkit (as of 2017-10-03, only this old version works under Windows):

    hid_bootloader_cli -mmcu=atmega32u4 ergodone_default.hex
