# ErgoDox Infinity
|
|
|
|
The Infinity is two completely independent keyboards, and needs to be flashed
|
|
for the left and right halves seperately. To flash them:
|
|
|
|
- Make sure you are in the top-level qmk_firmware directory
|
|
|
|
- Build the firmware with `make ergodox_infinity:keymapname`
|
|
|
|
- Plug in the left hand keyboard only.
|
|
|
|
- Press the program button (back of keyboard, above thumb pad).
|
|
|
|
- Install the firmware with `sudo make ergodox_infinity:keymapname:dfu-util`
|
|
|
|
- Build right hand firmware with `make ergodox_infinity:keymapname MASTER=right`
|
|
|
|
- Plug in the right hand keyboard only.
|
|
|
|
- Press the program button (back of keyboard, above thumb pad).
|
|
|
|
- Install the firmware with `sudo make ergodox_infinity:keymapname:dfu-util MASTER=right`
|
|
|
|
More information on the Infinity firmware is available in the [TMK/chibios for

## Infinity Master/Two Halves
|
|
|
|
The Infinity is two completely independent keyboards, that can connect together.
|
|
You have a few options in how you flash the firmware:
|
|
|
|
- Add `#define EE_HANDS` to your config.h, initialize the EEPROM values (see below),
|
|
and then flash the same firmware to both halves.
|
|
|
|
- Flash the left half, rebuild the firmware with "MASTER=right" and then flash
|
|
the right half. This allows you to plug in either half directly to the
|
|
computer and is what the above instructions do.
|
|
|
|
- Flash the left half, then flash the same firmware on the right. This only
|
|
works when the left half is plugged directly to the computer and the keymap
|
|
is mirrored. It saves the small extra step of rebuilding with
|
|
"MASTER=right".
|
|
|
|
- The same as the previous one but with "MASTER=right" when you build the
|
|
firmware, then flash the same firmware to both halves. You just have to
|
|
directly connect the right half to the computer.
|
|
|
|
- For minor changes such as changing only the keymap without having updated
|
|
any part of the firmware code itself, you can program only the MASTER half,
|
|
but it is safest to program both halves.
|
|
|
|
### EE_HANDS initialization
|
|
|
|
To initialize the EEPROM values for `EE_HANDS` to work properly, these steps should work.
|
|
They only need to be done once, unless you reset the EEPROM later.
|
|
|
|
- Plug in the left keyboard half to the computer, and press its program button.
|
|
|
|
- Flash the left half with `make ergodox_infinity:default:dfu-util-split-left`
|
|
(If you need to use a different method to flash your keyboard, still run this command,
|
|
and abort it with Ctrl+C when the flashing attempts starts to print errors,
|
|
then flash the built firmware).
|
|
|
|
- On the left half, press the top vertical 1.5U key (second from the top in the rightmost column) once,
|
|
then the 1U key at the bottom in the opposite corner (bottom left corner).
|
|
|
|
- Plug in the right keyboard half to the computer, and press its program button.
|
|
|
|
- Flash the right half with `make ergodox_infinity:default:dfu-util-split-right`
|
|
|
|
- On the right half, press the top vertical 1.5U key (second from the top in the leftmost column) once,
|
|
then the 1U key at the bottom in the opposite corner (bottom right corner).
|
|
|
|
- Add `#define EE_HANDS` to the config.h file of your keymap, and build your firmware using
|
|
`make ergodox_infinity:keymapname`.
|
|
|
|
- After this, you can flash both halves with the same firmware, _without_ having to rebuild with
|
|
"MASTER=right" or risking a mirrored keyboard when connected the wrong way.
|
|
If you reset your EEPROM later, you'll have to follow these steps again, though.
