I have already converted a model M 122 key that I am selling and it was easy with a Teensy 2.0. But the Wyse conversion software is different from soarers I think and what I have now is a Teensy LC and a pro micro.(pictured) I have already replaced the 4p4c port with a USB connector.
I knew the board would not register presses but when I plugged it in to a computer like the way it is now the lock LED's come on. So I knew I didn't ruin the board when I soldered on the connector. I plan to use the cable pictured and make an outboard project box converter for it.
How can I do this with a Teensy LC or pro micro, I have already looked it up and got really really confused when it came to the pinouts and such. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Soarer has a wyse converter as well, I don't think it's as mature as his PS2 one though but it might be a start.

The Teensy LC has a 32-bit ARM Cortex M0 while the Teensy 2.0 and Arduino Pro Micro have 8-bit AVR ATmega32u4.Redmaus wrote: ↑How can I do this with a Teensy LC or pro micro, I have already looked it up and got really really confused when it came to the pinouts and such.
Hasu's adapter firmware is for the AVR and will not work with the ARM.
The pin-out for the Arduino board can indeed be a bit confusing. Arduino uses a different system for numbering pins than AVR does, for some inexplicable reason ...
Here is a schematic for the Arduino Pro Micro where you can see the pin assignments:

How do I integrate that schematic to use with a replaced 4p4c port and a USB B cable? And will the soarer software Hzfaq mentioned work with a pro micro? Where could I get Hasu's converter? Sorry I am really uneducated on this sort of stuff, I really need to learn more about it.

cut the end off a micro usb and solder to that usb jack you have. solder from the old pins on the controller to the pro micro like so: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dork_vade ... 129699654/Redmaus wrote: ↑How do I integrate that schematic to use with a replaced 4p4c port and a USB B cable?

i just used whatever wire was on hand. the thick ones are solid core, hence the odd bending.
flash the arduino pro micro with soarer's wyse firmware according to this guide

I figured out all this on my own though it was really quite simple if you know how to search. i got a pm about this and figured i'd put it all in one place.
