- Download the JSON file at the bottom of the Keebmonkey support page
- Install this old version of Via
- Import the JSON file you downloaded above, keyboard should be programable now
After this I was able to use the Web software (maybe I didn't need the above, try this with yours first and see if it works):- Go to Via and use the Try now
- Click the Settings tab and enable "show design tab"
- Click the Design tab and enable "Use V2 Definitions (depreciated)"
- Click the Load button and import the JSON
- Click the Configure tab and click Authorize device and you should see `joystickex`, select it and click the Connect button.
- If it does not show your keyboard map, repeat that last step again.
That should do it, more or less. You can delete the old Via software if you installed it, you shouldn't need it again and maybe you never needed it. Extra controllers: Just like the Megalodon Dual Layer Knob Macropad, the larger knob is stiff and scratchy and can not be easily spun with one finger. Actually it's worse than the Macropad because pressure from the side makes it stick even harder. None of the knobs have a feel of quality that the rest of the KB has. The four buttons on the left feel like mushy dome switches but since I don't have any use for them, maybe I'll forget about them. The Joystick works to drive the mouse around ok, not sure how well it would work in games. RGB lighting has a lot of pre selections but no per-switch or per-layer lighting or as far as I can tell. Now that it's configured, I considered giving it more stars but, no, at $200 it should be better than this. I absolutely would not recommend to a friend because I'd be over at their house setting it up for them apologizing for telling them it was GTG. FIY, the white wont match the Drop + Biip MT3 Extended 2048 keycap set, see image.
