- # Smith and Rune Magnus
- 
- ## Introduction
- This is the QMK Firmware repository for the Magnus, a keyboard designed by [Smith and Rune](https://smithrune.com/) and PCBs designed by [Gondolindrim](http://github.com/Gondolindrim), who is also the firwmare maintainer.
- The Magnus keyboard has two PCB versions: a solderable version (m75s) and a hotswap version (m75h). While M75S has support for a myriad of alternative layouts, including a 7U bottom row and ISO, M75H only supports full and split backspace alternatives. Also, while M75S supports in-switch single-color LEDs and RGB LEDs for underglow light, M75H only supports RGB underglow.
- As of July 2023, the Magnus groubuy is already finished.
- ## How to flash
- ### Enter bootloader
- The DFU state in the bootloader can be accessed in 3 ways:
- * **Bootmagic reset**: Hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key, escape in the default keymap) and plug in the keyboard;
- * **Physical reset button**: press the button on the front of the PCB, next to caps lock, for at least five seconds;
- * **Keycode in layout**: Press the key mapped to `QK_BOOT`; in the default layout, that is top left key ('escape') in layer 1.
- ### How to compile and flash
- After checking what PCB you own and setting up your build environment, you can compile the Magnus default keymap by using one of the options below.
- make smithrune/magnus/m75s:default
- make smithrune/magnus/m75h:default
- And use `dfu-util` in the command line or through a GUI like QMK toolbox to upload the firmware to the PCB. To directly flash the PCB after it is put into a DFU state, use:
- make smithrune/magnus/m75s:default:flash
- make smithrune/magnus/m75h:default:flash
