¶ Megalodon Macro Pad Remapping/RGB Instructions
¶ 1. Download VIA (or Vial)
Download VIA Software (1.3.1):
macOS: Link
Windows: Link
Vial: Link
(Importing the .JSON in vial is just like in VIA, just head to the File tab in the program and hit sideload VIA JSON)
¶ 2. Installing VIA and Opening VIA
¶ 3. Downloading the .JSON keymap of your Macro Pad
FOR DOIO DEVICES WITH MULTIPLE PORTS (30,38, ETC) USE THE MIDDLE PORT WHEN DOING THIS
Megalodon Macro Pad with 2 Outemu Big Switches (KB-05): /kb-05_via.json.zip
Megalodon Macro Pad with a Knob/Megalodon Knob Pad (KB-04): /kb-04_via.json.zip
Megalodon Triple Knob Macro Pad (KB-16):/kb16via.json.zip
Megalodon 38% Keyboard with 3 Knobs (KB-38):/kb38_-_v2.zip
Megalodon 30% Keyboard with 3 Knobs (KB-30):/kb30-01.zip
Megalodon NinDoio GBA Macro Pad (KB-09): /kb09-01.json
Megalodon Dual Layer Macro Pad (KB-03): /kb03-01.json
Unzip the file after you download it, and get the .json file.
¶ 4. Importing .JSON Keymap of your Macro Pad
After choosing Import Keycap, select the .json file.
¶ 5. RGB Lighting
You cannot adjust the RGB of the keyboard directly in the VIA Software. Use the QMKLighting section in VIA, assign lighting command values to your keyboard (For example BL+, BL-, Hue+, Hue-, Sat+, Sat-), and adjust the lighting on the keyboard.
¶ 6. Key Combinations
You do not need to use one of your macros to do a simple key combination like GUI + N or CTRL + N. Instead, inside via go to Special and then click Any:
Once you click the Any button a dialog will pop up. You can insert any singular keycode you like, this includes those codes that have modifiers. In our example we used GUI (Mac OS Command) and N:
Once you hit confirm, you'll see your new key looks like this:
Go to the key tester and you can confirm this is now working! You can find a list of modifier keys that are usable here.
¶ All-in-One File Packs
We think that all-in-one file packs will make things easier, we have zipped the manual, the .json, and VIA together in a package for your convenience.
¶ Console 64 Keyboard
The keyboard can now be remapped online, use https://usevia.app/ and load /kb64g-.json to start remapping your board. Alternatively, you can use VIA to remap your Console 64 Keyboard offline.
