Hi all! I have a slight problem with my F77 Model-F. Whenever I press the ":." keycap, my spacebar is also going down a little bit. See here: https://youtu.be/dx9XRBGgQvs Also, the left ALT-button is VERY hard to push down if I press on it close to the space-bar. See here: https://youtu.be/XRSbIxVPi...

Hey Ellipse! I don't use an USB-hub, but I changed to another USB-port (from a 2.0 to 3.0 one), and now everything works perfectly. Thank you very much for the suggestion. Now I can enjoy the same wonderful Model-F experience on my trusty older platform as well

Hey everyone! So I've got a really weird behaviour with the Model F on an "older" computer. So I have two F77 Model F's, both loaded with VIA software. - One is connected to a new computer: Intel Z690, core i9 12900k - One is connected to an old computer: Intel Z170, core i7 6700k (EVGA Stinger Z170...

I happened to notice that the texture of the two keyboards are quite different. The color is slightly different too. I think both are very pretty and really don't mind, but it's just something I noticed. Funny thing is, that these two are manufactured on the same day (though with a serial number dif...

Hi all! I have one problem that I hope someone here can help me understand. I ordered a second F77 (Swedish layout). I wanted it to be configured exactly the same way as my first one, which is running VIA software. So what I did was that I first connected my first keyboard (which is working just fin...

Running my keyboard with a new computer now, and so far, no problems with that the keyboard does not work without plugging it in/out! After using it for about a month now, I don't see myself ever using something else!

I've also made a tiny video about the keyboard

I still have the problem with that I have to unplug and plug in the keyboard though, but maybe it's simply something with the combination of my motherboard. I'll upgrade my system in christmas anyway, so I hope the problem dissapears then.

Keyboard is in bootloader mode! You REALLY need to apply force with the tweezers on the pads for it to work. The good news is that it doesn't seem to matter how much time it goes before removing the tweezers. What I did was: - unplug keyboard - Short-circuit the pads (uzing tweezers with quite a lot...

You can always open the keyboard and short the "reset" pads at "the correct time" (during power-up). Or there can be a utility to switch it to bootloader mode on the fly. Do you know the name of this utility? I opened the keyboard, and though I didn't find any reset pads, I found the PROG-pads. I f...

Any ideas what I can do? Is there any other way to enter boot loader mode so that I can just do a clean eeprom-flash? You can always open the keyboard and short the "reset" pads at "the correct time" (during power-up). Or there can be a utility to switch it to bootloader mode on the fly. Do you kno...

Hey! While trying to figure out why my computer doesn't like the keyboard from time to time i did a firmware write using Atmel Flip with the file "Via F77 - ANSI-ISO - PrintScr.hex". Now I can't in any way manage to get the keyboard to get into bootloader mode, so I can't reprogram it. I should note...

Sometimes when I start my computer, the keyboard is not detected. I have to unplug it and plug it in again for it to be detected. I'm running VIA firmware. Anyone has experienced the same issue and has a solution? I believe he ran into the similar problem from time to time: https://www.youtube.com/...

Sometimes when I start my computer, the keyboard is not detected. You should probably define « computer », as there are apparently problems with Macs or USB hubs, and I don't remember anyone having this kind of problems with simple PC setups. Normal PC running Windows 10 (core i7 6700k, Z170 mother...

I'm running VIA firmware. Anyone has experienced the same issue and has a solution?

Huh? What am I doing wrong? IIRC, you may have used an initial firmware in which those 2 keys were not assigned, which the firmware identifies as non-existing. You thus cannot assign them later using VIA. Just use a firmware in which all keys are assigned, say 0-9 numpad. This did it! Now my keyboa...

Didn't have to make any travel and now I could finally disassemble the model F to get the "white filler" out of the enter ISO key! It took ages to do it but it's worth it. The keyboard looks great: https://i.ibb.co/0M5WNNS/3.jpg However, I do have one problem. I have flashed the controller with the ...

Ah shit, it seems that on ISO keyboards I need to use the black insert for the enter key (while the others use the white). I was looking at the video and in the video only white ones are being used, but that is for an ANSI keyboard. Now I have to disassemble the whole keyboard to get the white one o...

After watching this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEm2mewsmrA&feature=emb_title it seems I should put the "white thingies" inside, and it worked for all the buttons (so backspace and right shift), EXCEPT for the enter key (I have an ISO keyboard). The enter button seems to be "falling flat" ...

Hi! I finally got my keyboard and keys! (ordered in 2017). However, I have already encountered my first problems. I'm trying to mount the enter key but it's not very stable, so I assume I'm supposed to put in these "stabilizers". But, however I rotate them they don't seem to fit. Only in one directi...

*cries in swe iso*

I guess the ISO layouts will come after all the US/ANSI have been delivered?

I have to say I'm a little jealous of seeing all these keyboards here. I ordered mine in July of 2017, but because I don't have any spare keyboard I have to wait until all dye sublimation tests are finished and I can get the complete keyboard... :-P Ellipse : Does the international layout (Swedish i...

Final artwork for all of the extra key sets with a few minor additions and changes. .... I'm really confused about this. Around ~1 year ago I ordered an optional CM-style kit (see page 112 for picture) of the keys. But this seems like its not an option anymore? I did this as a separate order (Order...

I too wanted to say that I'm really impressed on the dedication that Ellipse has in this project. Really looking forward to my keyboard!

Ill post some photos as well, it seemed the one r/mk-er's album was all artisans and the flashquark album was all people.

Thanks! Not so many pictures of the model-F though... hope there is more!

For us that live on the other side of the globe... did anyone take any pictures from the meeting-event and could upload them here?

Looks amazing! Is this software included with the keyboard delivery? It is available now, Ellipse is using an xwhatsit controller (which has been made a bit smaller then the standard version). The xwhatsit controller has free open source software which has been available for quite a while. I believ...

Simple answer as screenshot:

It is 100% configurable - you can add any key to any place. (if you want you can have every key just be the 'A' - not that it would make any sense)

How do you program the keyboard so that each key does what you want it to do?

By the way... Chyrosran22 has made an extensive Model-F review:

I would also be very interested in adding this set to my order!
