[自製QMK鍵盤-番外] 在Custom Matrix中使用UART與控制滑鼠遊標，並加上無線模組

在這篇文章中我簡單地介紹了 Mitosis 這個基於 QMK 的無線分離式人體工學鍵盤，而在這篇文章中，我將參考其架構來做出一個我自己的無線分離式鍵盤的雛形。

要達成這樣的功能，會需要用到 QMK 的 Custom Matrix 和 UART 功能，並且使用 LoRa 無線通訊模組 HC-12 來暫時替代藍牙作為無線通訊。

在 QMK 中使用 Custom Matrix 與 UART

由於 Mitosis 不是和一般的鍵盤一樣透過按鍵掃描來取得按鍵狀態，而是藉由 UART 通訊，所以我們需要改變 QMK 的掃描程式，改成使用 UART 取得按鍵狀態。以下將會說明要如何達成。

rules.mk

首先，要完整地啓用「Custom Matrix」功能的話，要在 rules.mk 中增加 CUSTOM_MATRIX = yes 與 SRC += matrix.c，並在鍵盤資料夾中增加 matrix.c 檔案。而自定的掃描程式就要按照格式寫在 matrix.c 中。

然後，因為我們還會需要使用 UART 功能，所以在 rules.mk 中還要增加 SRC += uart.c 。因此，rules.mk 大概會長這樣：

#     automatically to create a 32-bit value in your source code.
#
#     This will be an integer division of F_USB below, as it is sourced by
#     F_USB after it has run through any CPU prescalers. Note that this value
#     does not *change* the processor frequency - it should merely be updated to
#     reflect the processor speed set externally so that the code can use accurate

#     raw input clock is fed directly to the PLL sections of the AVR for high speed
#     clock generation for the USB and other AVR subsections. Do NOT tack on a 'UL'
#     at the end, this will be done automatically to create a 32-bit value in your

SRC += matrix.c uart.c

matrix.c

自行新增的程式檔案 matrix.c 是用來放自定的掃描程式的，我們要在掃描程式中使用 UART 進行通訊。

根據 QMK 文件的說明，matrix.c 需要實作以下的函式：

/* Implement the following functions in a matrix.c file in your keyboard folder: */
matrix_row_t matrix_get_row(uint8_t row) {
    // TODO: return the requested row data
}

void matrix_print(void) {
    // TODO: use print() to dump the current matrix state to console
}

void matrix_init(void) {
    // TODO: initialize hardware and global matrix state here

    // Unless hardware debouncing - Init the configured debounce routine
    debounce_init(MATRIX_ROWS);

    // This *must* be called for correct keyboard behavior
    matrix_init_quantum();
}

uint8_t matrix_scan(void) {
    bool matrix_has_changed = false;

    // TODO: add matrix scanning routine here

    // Unless hardware debouncing - use the configured debounce routine
    debounce(raw_matrix, matrix, MATRIX_ROWS, changed);

    // This *must* be called for correct keyboard behavior
    matrix_scan_quantum();

    return matrix_has_changed;
}

/* And also provide defaults for the following callbacks: */
__attribute__((weak)) void matrix_init_kb(void) { matrix_init_user(); }
__attribute__((weak)) void matrix_scan_kb(void) { matrix_scan_user(); }
__attribute__((weak)) void matrix_init_user(void) {}
__attribute__((weak)) void matrix_scan_user(void) {}

對我們來說，只需要注意 matrix_init() 與 matrix_scan() 這兩個函式就好了。matrix_init() 就是初始化矩陣掃描（只會被呼叫一次），我們要在此函式中完成 UART 的初始化，而 matrix_scan() 就是矩陣掃描的程式，也就是每次要進行掃描是要執行的程式，我們要在此函式中接收 UART 的封包並告訴 QMK 有哪些按鍵狀態改變了（被壓下或釋放）。

一個簡單的測試程式大概長這樣：（我根據 Mitosis 的程式進行修改的，未檢查是否有不必要的程式）

上面這段程式比較重要的有幾點：

  • #include "uart.h"：引用 QMK 的 UART 功能，否則會編譯錯誤。
  • uart_init(9600)：在 matrix_init() 中初始化 UART，並將鮑率（Baud Rate）設定為 9600 bps。
  • uart_available()：有用過 Arduino 的 Serial Port 的人應該都看得懂這一段，就是只要 UART 的接收緩衝區有值（有接收到資料），就使用 uart_read() 將收到的資料讀出，在透過 switch-case 來處理並改寫 matrix[] 的值，以完成按鍵狀態的更新。

利用 QMK 移動滑鼠遊標

因為我要做的無線分離式鍵盤上預計裝有軌跡球，所以我也一併測試了 QMK 要如何控制滑鼠遊標。

首先，在 rules.mk 中增加 MOUSEKEY_ENABLE = yes、POINTING_DEVICE_ENABLE = yes 和 POINTING_DEVICE_DRIVER = custom 就可以啓用滑鼠與遊標的相關功能。

在 matrix.c 中加入 #include "quantum.h"，並將剛剛的 matrix_scan() 的程式改成：

#include "quantum.h"

uint8_t matrix_scan(void) {
    if (uart_available()) {
            uint8_t indata = uart_read();
            report_mouse_t report = {};
            report.x = (int8_t)indata;
            pointing_device_set_report(report);
            pointing_device_send();
        }
    }

    matrix_scan_quantum();
    return 1;
}

其中，report_mouse_t 就是 QMK 中滑鼠遊標的 Data type，其原型為：

    uint8_t report_id;

    int8_t  x;
    int8_t  y;
    int8_t  v;
    int8_t  h;
} __attribute__((packed)) report_mouse_t;
  • x 與 y 分別代表滑鼠遊標 X 軸與 Y 軸移動的距離，範圍是 -128 ~ 127。
  • v 與 h 代表滑鼠滾輪垂直與水平滾動的距離，範圍是 -128 ~ 127。
  • buttons 代表各個滑鼠按鈕按下的情況。

LoRa 無線通訊模組 HC-12

因為我手邊沒有其它適合的無線通訊模組，所以就先拿「HC-12」這款 LoRa 模組來使用。

這個模組的好處是使用簡單方便，就自己把它當成一般的 UART 就好，Tx 與 Rx 接好，不用特別設定什麼就可以無線通訊了。

而我用來控制 HC-12 的是 Nucleo-F302R8（STM32F302R8），因為只是要簡單的測試無線通訊及 QMK，所以就寫了一個按下按鈕會透過 UART 傳送特定資料的程式作為測試。STM32 韌體函式庫使用「libopencm3」，IDE 為「PlatformIO for VS Code」。

結語

這次簡單地分享了 QMK 使用 Custom Matrix、UART 和控制滑鼠遊標的方法，有些功能我自己也是找了不少資料才知道要怎麼做，並且也測試了很多次。

然而對 QMK 的瞭解也還很粗淺，很多細節沒辦法講解，而如果上述內容有任何錯誤也請指正。
