# MechMerlin's DZ60 Keymap
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this keymap is to provide examples on how to do some common QMK features.
|
|
|
|
Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
|
|
|
|
make dz60:mechmerlin
|
|

|
## Merlin's DZ60 Hardware Info
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The DZ60 is a 60% pcb produced by KBDFans. It comes in two variants, USB Mini B and USB C. It supports many many layouts. It also supports both backlight and RGB underglow. The USB C variant does not have a hardware reset switch. USB C to C is not supported.
|
|
|
|
Merlin's DZ60 uses
|
|
- Layout B, in QMK this is LAYOUT_60_b_ansi.
|
|
- USB C
|
|
- 50g Zilents
|
|
- Arrows are 78g Zilents
|
|
- KPRepublic XD64 Case
|
|
|
|
## Layers
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Merlin's keymap has three different layers. To switch layers you can use the `MO(X)` keycode, where `X` is the layer you want to switch to.
|
|
|
|
### _BL
|
|
|
|
This is the base layer also known as layer 0. It is a standard QWERTY layout. It has the `_FL` layer switch key.
|
|
|
|
### _FL
|
|
|
|
This is the function layer also known as layer 1. It utiizes the following:
|
|
- Function Keys
|
|
- Navigation Keys
|
|
- Audio keys such as Mute, Volume Down and Volume Up.
|
|
- `_CL` layer switch key
|
|
|
|
### _CL
|
|
|
|
This is the control layer also known as layer 2. It utilizes the following:
|
|
- RGB Controls
|
|
- `RESET` key
|
|
|
|
## Non Standard Keycodes
|
|
---
|
|
### RESET
|
|
|
|
As long `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` is set to `yes` in `rules.mk`, the DZ60 can be put into bootloader mode by holding the `space` key and the `b` key while plugging in. However sometmes this doesn't work or is troublesome to do, might as well use the `RESET` keycode to accomplish this.
|
|
|
|
### RSFT_T(KC_SLSH)
|
|
|
|
Layout B is missing the `?` key and is instead replaced with a `right shift`. This keycode makes it so that the key can be tapped for `?` and held for `right shift`.
|
|
|
|
### LCTL_T(KC_CAPS)
|
|
|
|
`Caps Lock` is only ever used by tapping, why not use it as a `control` key when held? This keycode makes it so that the key can be tapped for `caps lock` and held for `control`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## RGB Lighting
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### RGBLIGHT_SLEEP
|
|
|
|
This is set in `mechmerlin/config.h` so that when the computer goes to sleep, the RGB lights will also go to sleep on the keyboard. They will turn back on when the computer wakes.
|
|
|
|
### RGB Underglow Color: Yellow
|
|
|
|
This is set in `mechmerlin/keymap.c` in the `matrix_init_user` function. The list of available colors can be found in [`quantum/rgblight_list.h`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/388df5359b913eaf1ce6fb0ef624e430ad010ea5/quantum/rgblight_list.h#L59-L121).
