Hey Victor,

first of all big thanks for the Void9! Already build one myself and gathered the parts for two sets as presents for some friends of mine :)

But I found a small error in your handwiring guide on your website and related to this I would suggest an improvement:
On your website the pinout for the columns are swapped (It must be 1,0,4 not 0,1,4). In relation to this I would suggest to use the pin names which are printed on the board itself instead of using the 'internal names' which would make assembly way more user friendly in my opinion. Because while building the void9 I first had to google a pinout graphics of the Pro Micro which uses the internal name so I know which pads on the board to use.

With the printed names the mapping would become this:

Best,
Felix

HI Victor It's me again .

I want to make a new one with encoder since I have successfully run the vial. But I still confuse with the pinout.

the encoder have 5 pin 2 + 3 . I know the 2 pin one is for colom and other for the row, both pin act as a button . The other 3 pin is for rotary up and down. the 2 pin is already known as you wrote, but how about the last pin ? where does it go ? does it go to the same colom as the other 2 pin ? or goes to "gnd" pin ?

if you have the diagram that would be delightful.

Thanks in Advance

Rafael

Hi there,

unfortunately, i could Not contact you via Email, so i just opened an issue. You can delete it afterwards, if you wish.

Some time ago, i stumbled upon your VOID9 macropad and i fell in love with it. I love the tiny, classy and simple design so i made a first print and wired it and it worked like a charme.

Then i decided to take it a step further and designed the VOID9.1. I forked your repo and modified the prints and added RGB-Support and rewrote some parts of the code. Now it's all done and i completed the readme on github and published the repo. I wanted to ask, if you could have a look at at https://github.com/Mboehmlaender/kb-void9.1 and tell me, if there are any licence issues in the code or the repo itself, so i can adjust it to give you the credit, you deserve. And maybe a star would be nice.

Thanks in advance und greetings from bavaria.

The chips on the bottom of the waveshare rp2040 won't allow it to slide into the controller slides. Seems like a 1 or 2 mm spacer needs to be cut out of the middle

Hello, first and foremost thank you for this great project. It clearly help a person who is novice. So It helps me a lot without PCB hassle. I couldn't see any wiring process for EC11 Rotary Encoder? Do I need to connect diode for it along within the grid as well or can I directly solder the ends into pro micro?

Kinda regards.

Hi @victorlucachi

Can you maybe add the source files (eg. Fusion 360), so I could create an updated version for an Arduino micro with type-c (eg. Tenstar Robot pro micro)?
I'd be happy to add it via pull request, once done :)

P.S. the angled file seems to be defective.

When using your QMK fork in order to support this macropad, QMK does not recognize the folder of the keyboard firmware with the following error:

$ # using make
$ make handwired/void9:default
QMK Firmware 0.11.69
usage: qmk list-layouts [-h] [-kb KEYBOARD]
qmk list-layouts: error: argument -kb/--keyboard: invalid keyboard_folder value: 'handwired/void9'

qmk compile: error: argument -kb/--keyboard: invalid keyboard_folder value: 'handwired/void9'

I've found the issue is in the DEFAULT_FOLDER directive in the rules.mk file, which somehow messes with the QMK compilation process:

--- a/keyboards/handwired/void9/rules.mk
+++ b/keyboards/handwired/void9/rules.mk

-DEFAULT_FOLDER = handwired/void9/default
\ No newline at end of file
+# DEFAULT_FOLDER = handwired/void9/default

Once removed, the firmware compiles just as fine (with some warnings).

hi .. I'm just new in QMK and Via ..

I tried to load your json file, but it comes up with error ..

May I know what is wrong ? do I have to plug the keyboard first before I can see the layout ?

Thanks in Advance

Rafael

hi victor ,

I just finally finish my macropad.. Thans for your tutorial .

but there is something miss in pinout between col 0 and col 1.

I guess it should be

Col 0 D1
Col1 D0

btw do you have the tutorial for replacing one button top left with the Rotary encoder ?

I have been thinking to create another one with Rotary encoder with the same matrix .

regards,

Rafael
