Installation
The PicoSplit-Firmware is based on CircuitPython version 7.1. Previous versions do not work. Go to https://circuitpython.org/board/raspberry_pi_pico/ and install CircuitPython on both keyboard halves. Then proceed with the next steps.
Slave
- Connect the slave keyboard to your computer.
- A USB drive with the name CIRCUITPY appears inside the Finder (macOS) or Explorer (Windows).
- Copy the files and folders inside the Slave folder of this repository to that drive.
- Disconnect the slave keyboard.
Master
- Connect the master keyboard to your computer.
- A USB drive with the name CIRCUITPY appears inside the Finder (macOS) or Explorer (Windows).
- Copy the files and folders inside the Master folder of this repository to that drive.
Quick function test
- Keep the master keyboard connected to the computer and connect the slave keyboard to the master keyboard with a TRRS cable.
- Open an text editor
- Press all the keys on your keyboard one after the other.
Each time you press a key, a number should appear in the text editor and then the cursor should jump to the next line.
If no number appears when you press a key, check the wiring of the corresponding key.
