* Initial Commit for Ploopyco Trackball This is a WIP at this point. Most of it compiles, but the SPI commands are non-functioning as they come from Arduino, so don't exist in LUFA * Convert SPI commands from arduino to LUFA But I have no idea if this is actually correct or not * Update keyboard readme * Clean up ploopyco trackball * Update readme * Update mouse key stuff * last minutue cleanup * Add caveat about scroll wheel * Fixup to code * Additional fixup * Add movement multiplier * Rename folders * mid changes * temp * Got it working!!!!! * Additional cleanup of code * Make unused pin calls more compact * Rotation info * Add debouncing checks * Make everything replaceable * Add info.json * Include ISP flashing info * Better handling for user customization * Reconfigure CPI stuff * fix issues with debug printing * Fix tiny scroll issue * Add and update scroll code from ploopy mouse * Update licensing * Add PloopyCo Mouse * Cleanup and layout stuff * Move common files to main folder for reuse * Increase polling rate * Update image for mouse * Apply changes from code review * Add VIA support |

Ploopyco Trackball
It's a DIY, QMK Powered Trackball!!!!
Everything works. However the scroll wheel has some issues and acts very odd.
- Keyboard Maintainer: PloopyCo, Drashna Jael're, Germ
- Hardware Supported: ATMega32u4 8MHz(3.3v)
- Hardware Availability: Store, GitHub
Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make ploopyco/trackball:default:flash
To jump to the bootloader, hold down "Button 4" (immediate right of the trackball)
See the build environment setup and the make instructions for more information. Brand new to QMK? Start with our Complete Newbs Guide.
Customzing your PloopyCo Trackball
While the defaults are designed so that it can be plugged in and used right away, there are a number of things that you may want to change. Such as adding DPI control, or to use the ball to scroll while holding a button. To allow for this sort of control, there is a callback for both the scroll wheel and the mouse censor.
The default behavior for this is:
void process_wheel_user(report_mouse_t* mouse_report, int16_t h, int16_t v) {
mouse_report->h = h;
mouse_report->v = v;
}
void process_mouse_user(report_mouse_t* mouse_report, int16_t x, int16_t y) {
mouse_report->x = x;
mouse_report->y = y;
}
This should allow you to more heavily customize the behavior.
Alternatively, the process_wheel
and process_mouse
functions can both be replaced too, to allow for even more functionality.
Additionally, you can change the DPI/CPI or speed of the trackball by calling pmw_set_cpi
at any time. And tThe default can be changed by adding a define to the keymap's config.h
file:
#define PMW_CPI 1600
Programming QMK-DFU onto the PloopyCo Trackball
If you would rather have DFU on this board, you can use the QMK-DFU bootloader on the device. To do so, you want to run:
make ploopyco/trackball:default:production
Once you have that, you'll need to ISP Flash the chip with the new bootloader hex file created (or the production hex), and set the fuses:
Fuse | Setting |
---|---|
Low | 0xDF |
High | 0xD8 or 0x98 |
Extended | 0xCB |
Original (Caterina) settings:
Fuse | Setting |
---|---|
Low | 0xFF |
High | 0xD8 |
Extended | 0xFE |
