Building

  • Solder all keyboard connector pins to Arduino Pro Micro.
  • You can solder Restore key (connector pin "I") paraller to some other pin. I soldered "I" and "G" to Arduino pin A8.

Firmware/flashing

  • Download Soarer controller firmware: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=50437.0
  • Install Arduino IDE
  • Connect RST to GND couple of times to get Arduino Pro Micro to programming mode (notice that com-port is different in programming mode in Windows)
  • Flash firmware
& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr/bin/avrdude" -C"C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr/etc/avrdude.conf" -v -p m32u4 -c avr109 -P COM5 -b 57600 -U flash:w:firmware\Soarer_Controller_v1.20_beta4_atmega32u4.hex:i

Setup

Download configfile. Check pin order to match your setup.

.\scas C64_matrix.sc C64_matrix.bin
.\scwr C64_matrix.bin
