# hmproto34





hmproto34 is a hand-fitted keyboard with 34 keys.

## How to Use Firmware
The most simple way to use hmproto34 is to flash the pre-built firmware to your keyboard.
Download the latest firmware from [Releases](https://github.com/hmasdev/hmproto34/releases) and follow the instructions in [How to Flash Firmware](#how-to-flash-firmware).
The next 2 subsections explain how to build firmware and flash it to your keyboard.
If you want to know how to build the keyboard, see [How to Build Keyboard](#how-to-build-keyboard).
### How to Build Firmware
1. Setup your QMK environment
- if you use Windows, install [QMK MSYS](https://msys.qmk.fm/)
- See [https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs_getting_started?id=set-up-your-environment](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs_getting_started?id=set-up-your-environment) for more information.
- NOTE: assume that `qmk_firmware` directory is located at `~/qmk_firmware` in the following steps.
2. Open QMK MSYS
- If you use Windows, open QMK from the start menu. See [https://msys.qmk.fm/guide.html#next-steps](https://msys.qmk.fm/guide.html#next-steps).
3. Clone this repository
```sh
cd ~/qmk_firmware/keyboards
git clone git@github.com:hmasdev/hmproto34.git
```
4. Build firmware
```sh
qmk compile -kb hmproto34 -km default
```
Good! Now, you have a built firmware in `~/qmk_firmware/.build/hmproto34_default.hex`.
### How to Flash Firmware
1. Visit [Pro Micro Web Updater](https://sekigon-gonnoc.github.io/promicro-web-updater/index.html);
2. Select the firmware file (`~/qmk_firmware/.build/hmproto34_default.hex`);
3. Connect your left keyboard to your computer and press its reset button;
4. Click the `Flash` button on the website;
5. Wait for the flashing process to complete;
6. Repeat steps 3-5 for the right keyboard.
OK. Now, you can use your hmproto34 keyboard! Try typing something!
## How to Customize Keymap
1. After step 3. of [How to Build Firmware](#how-to-build-firmware), edit `~/qmk_firmware/keyboards/hmproto34/keymaps/default/keymap.c` to customize your keymap. If you want to add a new keymap, run `qmk new-keymap`;
2. Build firmware again;
```sh
qmk compile -kb hmproto34 -km {default or your keymap name}
```
3. [Flash firmware again](#how-to-flash-firmware);

### Required Components
| Component | Quantity | Note |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PCB | 2 | [Gerber files](./pcb) |
| Top Plate | 2 | [Gerber files](./top_plate) |
| Pro Micro | 2 | |
| TRRS Jack | 2 | |
| TRRS Cable | 1 | 3 or 4 poles |
| Tactile Switch | 2 | Reset Switch |
| Kalih PCB Socket | 34 | For MX Compatible Switch |
| MX Compatible Switch | 34 | |

### Assembly Steps
1. Solder PCB Sockets to the bottom of PCBs;
2. Attach diodes to the top of PCBs and solder them on the bottom of PCBs;
3. Attach tactile switches and TRRS jacks to the top of PCBs and solder them on the bottom of PCBs;
4. Attach Pro Micros to the top of PCBs;


5. Attach key switches to the top plate;

6. Joint the top plate and PCBs;
7. Build and flash firmware;
- See [How to Build Firmware](#how-to-build-firmware) and [How to Flash Firmware](#how-to-flash-firmware) for more information.
8. Connect the left and right keyboards with a TRRS cable;
9. Enjoy typing!
## PCB and Top Plate
### PCB
Gerber files are located in [./pcb](./pcb) directory.
You can order PCBs from PCB manufacturers like JLCPCB etc.
### Top Plate
Gerber files are located in [./top_plate](./top_plate) directory.
You can order PCBs from PCB manufacturers like JLCPCB etc.
See [./top_plate/hmproto34-Edge_Cuts.svg](./top_plate/hmproto34-Edge_Cuts.svg) for the shape of the top plate.
