Features
DK60TP allows some customisations like caps lock led or mouse emulation by using trackpoint.
For all pinout above, pin 1 is represented by the square hole.
Trackpoint
To use trackpoint you need to connect the MOUSE PCB with the MAIN PCB. Trackpoint need to be connected to the MOUSE PCB.
Pinout
- Vcc
- GND
- D2 (data)
- reset
- D5 (clock)
Capslock led
Capslock led can be tuned to :
- enable internal led
- disabled it
- use external led
To do this you need to play with the 3 pins connector placed near the reset button.
Pinout
- 1: +Vled (square pin)
- 2: Integrated led
- 3: GND
Example
Integrated led
Place a jumper between pin 1 and 2.
External led
Connect your led between pin 1 and 3.
Disable led
Remove the jumper or place it between pin 2 and 3.
Firmware
DK60TP still in development and for now does not have associate firmware, but it will be supported by QMK firmware.
