    He says this in the video, but for anyone just here for the software: select a key on the top left, then what you want it to to down below, hit download and it'll write to the keypad. The K1 left/center/right are for knobs, turning left, right, and clicking.
    Thanks for linking the software!

    Thank you for the video. I purchased a 16 button + 2 knob macro pad from temu similar to the one you have. This seems to be an inexpensive way to make a diy macro pad using Adafruit KB2040. All I have to do is figure out the pin connections, de-solder the built-in chip, and add wires to the KB2040. I will probably design a 3D printed bottom to accommodate the extra thickness.

      I've made custom keyboards normally the annoyance is with MOQ of the individual items.
      Modding one of these would save a lot of purchase hassle for the hassle of modding the ori enclosure. Not a bad deal with access to a 3d printer.

    Thanks for the video, i wonder if you can use the knob to play games like Arkanoid. In this case, can you configure the knob to move as a mouse left and right in an analog way? It seems you can only set left click, middle and right click functions only.

    • @randomnick2890
      @randomnick2890  10 місяців тому +1

      Nope, as far as I know it’s not possible to directly assign those kinds of commands.
      I would normally suggest autohotkey for custom mapping but with gaming I’m not sure if it’ll add additional latency.
      Then again, it’s been a well known finding that these devices have a pretty low polling rate that really doesn’t make them suitable for gaming. You’ll get very poor response times.

    Thank you, you saved my day. I'm just wondering what the function of LAYER is? can I use a shortcut on different software?? for example Lightroom uses a different shortcut to Photoshop and when not using any software, the Shortcut key returns to the way I set it in the beginning without re-entering the shortcut key again. can it be done?? Thank you again.

    • @randomnick2890
      @randomnick2890  Рік тому +4

      Nope the layer is supposed to be a toggle for a different mode.
      If you want to keep tacking on functionality, I would suggest look into autohotkey
      First you map this macropad to super weird keys like f12+alt+5 then you use autohotkey to look for that input and check the foreground app to decide the actual input you want.
      Of course this process is quite involved but there’s plenty of existing resources. If I do get around to implementing something like that, I’ll drop a link in the video as well

    • @randomnick2890
      @randomnick2890  Рік тому +1

      The layers give access to different keys. As I mentioned in the video, it only works with the Bluetooth version of the macropad which I did not get. If you’d be so kind as to sponsor me, I’ll test it and make a video on it.
      I’ve tested 2 macropads on the same machine, it is individually recognised. There’s no issue with making more than one.
      The programming needs to be done with only one connected at a time.

    • @randomnick2890
      @randomnick2890  Рік тому

      Not a good idea.
      1. The knob is stepped, so there's quite a bit of friction when trying to turn and it has a set turn amount.
      2. The polling rate of the device is not high enough for most games that require fast input.
      3. Its just really small. Unless you're gonna hold it with 2 hands or have a way to mount / stick it to a desk, its not going to stay in one place

      On a normal keyboard, when you want to press '?' you would press 'shift' + '/'
      So you could assign the macro to that combo.

      1. If you watch my teardown, the chip used wouldn't readily allow much function to be embedded. So to my there's minimal possibility on the hardware level.
      2. The software. This is the risk. Having to run some random ass software to get the device working is sus.
      From the files that I've shared, it seems to contain the source as well. I don't have the means to validate if it's clean, maybe someone more well versed in it can take it up.

    • @randomnick2890
      @randomnick2890  10 місяців тому

      I would start with windows itself.
      1. Is the device showing up in windows device manager when plugged in? Does it show any sign of life? Like printing the default c when pressed.
      2. If no, try another usb port.
      3. If all usb ports fail, try another machine
      4. If that all fails then it’s probably the macropad that’s faulty.
      5. If it’s connected and print the default c but software does not recognise it, confirm that your device is the same as the one I tore down in the video, unscrew yours and ensure it generally looks the same.
      6. Try running the software as administrator.
      If that all fails, explain your procedure again here as detailed as possible and we’ll see if we can figure it out.
      If one of the steps works, do report back so that maybe it’ll help someone else.
