Iso plate me like it.

Don't you like a good amateur CP ?

^____^

Looks pretty nice, not really a fan of metal 1800s though.

[radio_killah]

Very cool, very, swag, I like it.

Too bad I ain't got no money.

[Data]

Neat.  Something tells me those are not your standard Cherry stabilizer cutouts.

[demik]

Lz is a fan of cheese pizza?

[SpAmRaY]

CP could = cheese pizza or cuddly bear or crowd pleaser or communist party

[metalliqaz]

Unfortunate name

Yeah, but "LZ" is his name so he probably shouldn't leave it out

[Melvang]

Neat.  Something tells me those are not your standard Cherry stabilizer cutouts.

They are PCB mount cherry only.

[taylordcraig]

I hope this doesn't come out for a while. I'm broke as a joke.

[Lastpilot]

Somehow it's just missing the well known 1800 form and looks more like a modified Lightsaver. I think its mostly the lack of space between f-row and number row. But oh well, it's always good to have more options in this layout. )

[VesperSAINT]

Got excited and then realized not full 1800 layout. Pretty much Lightsaver with dedicated arrow cluster. BUT I still really like it <3

[byker]

I need this in my life. Someone should do a gh proxy 

[Data]

Neat.  Something tells me those are not your standard Cherry stabilizer cutouts.

They are PCB mount cherry only.

They look like a huge pain in the ass to install.

Not really.  If a new build they go in before switches.

[Sygaldry]

TX1800 payment soon. Cannot afford this

[Joey Quinn]

I want one and depending on the GB time I may be in. Here's hoping for some cool ano colors.

[lookitdisnub]

Liking the red and silver

[sethk_]

Everything looks good except for the LED placement

[jonathanyu]

Every time I see a new LZ board, I feel sad that LZ got banned to start gb here

[Karura]

Which colour combo do you guys like the best?

I'm thinking the black top/silver bottom looks great, but do any of you prefer an 100% black or 100% silver colour scheme instead?

I would so love to buy this instead of a Lightsaver since that seems to be taking a million years.

Photeq - what is it about the name you don't like?

[HTN47]

Wow!! This looks really nice 
The 1800 layout was too bulky looking for my taste due to the excessive space between the number row and F-row, and the lightsaver was too simplistic looking due to it not having a top half, this is literally the best of both worlds for me 
I really hope someone can run this buy for GH!!

CP is Child Porn in some circles.  It's really only offensive if you spend way too much time on the Internet.

Must.... Get.... Proxy.... 

[Karura]

It says BOTTOM RGB SMD LEDs are an option; does the case have the ability to shine LEDs from the bottom of the case?

[seedvd]

I think you don't need to get proxy. You can order one through LZ's international order with English version: http://lzlife.tistory.com/entry/LZ-CP-GB

Edit: I read all the comments before but had a brainfart when posting this. I dislike mobile...

[HTN47]

Hmmmm.... I've placed an order but I have no idea how to check if the order went through... LZ said the ordered list will be updated on May 18th, anyone know where I can find this list?

[malcomkern]

I placed an order as well last Friday and send an email this Monday because it looked like nothing happened, but with a swift reply that the order came through and invoice etc will start on this Friday. About the same text as the last forumpost.

Ohhh sweet! Thanks for the info 
I got worried so I sent in another order haha
I guess I could always cancel one

Just paid my invoice. Seems like LZ doesn't offer assembly service.

You may notice the note next to my name. LZ noted that "with out full assembled price". I asked him in the form if he could fully assemble it for me, then I get that note, so I guess he doesn't offer it. Not sure about ninjadoc's order.

[Karura]

Ah, I think he just offers soldering, but not full assembly.

[LifeZ]

Ah, I think he just offers soldering, but not full assembly.

Hi,
I waited for your contact.
Please contact me by e-mail. (lzlife@tistory.com)
Please let know the options associated with the assembly.
If the final order is completed, we will re-send an invoice.

sry. my english is not good

I'm surprised more people did not buy this keyboard, especially the people who are waiting for the Lightsaver groupbuy.

When you want assembly options you need to discuss it with LZ via email as he said. I have had boards assembled by him in a past group buy but I don't know if it is routinely offered or not.

[HTN47]

Anyone in the GB received any updates recently?

[Shanghaied]

There was that photo that LZ posted on his site some time in July, but other than that, nothing.

[Karura]

LZ was on vacation. Hopefully he has an update for us soon.

[iamtootallforthis]

I want one!

[HTN47]

LZ was on vacation. Hopefully he has an update for us soon.

Ohhh I see, that explains the lack of response from him. The last update was about a month ago and it seems like the milling process is almost done, hopefully it'll be ready for shipping by the end of this month 

[malcomkern]

I see a change on his site on lzlife.tistory.com, the blank milled cases picture is gone and the last post is the order list. 
Like to hear a status update about the GB if possible.

[malcomkern]

An e-mail just arrived telling me the LZ CP is ready to be shipped 
I' am stoked

Nice guys! Please post some pics of them if you don't mind. 
I am still waiting for mine. I sent him an email a couple days ago but haven't got reply yet. I guess the fully assembled keyboard takes a bit longer.

If somebody gets unhappy with the keyboard i'd be glad to take it off your hands

Boo! I just noticed a bare spot where the anodised coat didn't cover. And one of the plates is super bent. But I think I can fix that.  Sloppy work on the anodizing .

[Shanghaied]

Just spent about five hours soldering all the SMD components (I could swear half of that time was spent flipping the parts the right way up). Anyway, tried plugging it up with the PC, and noticed that only RGB1 to RGB6 (the RGB LEDs) stayed lit up, while the others only flashed very briefly. Anyone else seeing this? Not sure if it's actually a problem - the connection to the other LEDs are there, since they flashed, but I'm still a bit puzzled. And on that note, is there documentation for this board somewhere?

No idea, I only did the resistors just now. Still have to do the diodes. I'll let you know how the board reacts.

[malcomkern]

Received my package in the mail today, lucky I was at home today 

Now the adventure begins, I never build a custom keyboard so I will be watching this thread closely for any build logs. And you can expect some questions for sure 

Happy to be in this GB and looking forward to a superb keyboard.

[JeremyFXDWG]

I am new to Geekhack an missed the GB. is there any way to get one of these still? This board is the exact layout i had in my mind when I started searching for a custom board and found geek hack.

Only way would to get one would be to buy one from someone in the group buy in the classifieds. However there are only 14 people who participated so the chances might be slim..

This going to sound really noobish, but can someone link the resistors(?) necessary for the Capslock, ScrollLock, NumLock LEDS please?

[Shanghaied]

They are, I think size, 2012. The values should be different since the LEDs have different colours, but the ones LZ provided are all 821s (820 Ohm).

Don't use the flush cutter on those SIPs, just push them out:

[radish]

He he my gf did that. But yes that's not what they are for. I use them to trim led wires! :-)

All the LEDs on the back pulse rainbow vomit.

[HTN47]

Hey guys, how long did it take for you to receive your parts after getting a notification email from LZ?
I just wanna gauge when mine would come because I'm leaving town for a couple days and I kinda want to bring the parts along to have something to busy myself with

I'd say about a week... If not a bit more.

Thank you, but I can't seem to find resistors of that size, could you please link a shop? Also, would these be good as the diodes? http://ca.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=1N4148TRvirtualkey61370000virtualkey78-1N4148

If someone would just post a build-log with the components and location of said components that would be amazing.

There are no holes for through hole diodes. So if you are putting together the lz cp pcb those wouldn't work. Maybe  you can diy something but I would stick to your standard t4 diodes. I thought every kit came with a set of everything...

SMD Diodes (1N4148W) T4

[tristan1035]

It does, I just didn't look through all the bags.

[xauser]

Today I received my LZ CP. Packaging was great and anodizing is perfect. Haven't checked the electronics yet. Thanks LifeZone, this is a premium board!

[xauser]

I had a look at the electronics today and soldered switch resistors and diodes. A first test of the matrix revealed that not all keys are working for me. Most keys of the number pad do not signal. A closer look at this showed that Atmega pins PD5, PD6 and PD7 don't work. My soldering work looks ok so I assume its firmware related.

Can somebody confirm this?

i can confirm one thing on my end. i did a electrical test and every key registered. the only keys that i cant confirm work yet is the ketc1. thats beacuse i didnt run through an indepth test. i just shorted everything and the entire board seems to be functioning as intended.

this might be a silly question... but have you checked your diode orientation? or maybe if you thinking the controller isnt making contact try to reflow the connections with fresh solder? i really hope you didnt get a dud controller, that would suck immensely!

all i can say with the info you gave.

edit.

does anyone have the layout chart for the space row? i saw it on the lz page, and now it seems like it was taken down.

[radio_killah]

Did people receive tracking numbers after their stuff shipped? I got an email saying my order was ready but that was it.

You should get a email soon saying it's shipped. From past exp Order ready means that all your ordered parts there boxed but not shipped.

[malcomkern]

Yes I got an email with the tracking-ID (for my shipment to Europe).
My box was very well packed and went through customs without a big delay.
I am very happy with how this GB went. Kudos to LZLife.

It is programmed via JigON (http://kbdlab.co.kr/index.php?document_srl=2702787&mid=board_sw). It is super easy. Second only to GON's Nerdy GUI.

[Shanghaied]

Cheers guys will give it try when I get home.

[Shanghaied]

Hmm, not sure if I'm doing something wrong here. Based on Google translation of the page I have flashed the keyboard with loadfw.bat, but I can only get JigOn to connect with the keyboard some of the times. The rest of the time the program crashes with the message "KeyboardDef has stopped working". It read like I'm suppose to connect the keyboard with Esc pressed, but that doesn't seem to help. Am I missing something really obvious?

Without JigOn I can sometimes connect the keyboard and have it working, the rest of the times the RGB LEDs flashes rainbow colours, but the keyboard is otherwise non-functional.

[tuantruong]

I got exactly the same problem, I connected the keyboard to my pc, only got the RGB LEDs flashes, and the PC doesn't recognize the keyboard, nothing is functional, I got this notice everytime I plug kb in:

Okay I'm not sure if this applies to your case, but I've got mine working by first disconnecting the keyboard, start JigOn, and then connect the keyboard. Doing it in this sequence seems to allow me to programme the keyboard. It seems that if I start JigOn with the board connected to the computer, the board will enter some where state where the custom settings are either lost or the board is non-functional. Have only tried a couple of times, but that seems to be the case. Hope this helps.

Just found this GB and was curious if there's anywhere I can still get my hands on one of these or if there's an email I can reach out to LZ to see if he has any extras I tried translating his site to find a contact us/email but wasn't able to find anything.

His email:

Thanks, hopefully I can snag one somehow!

You may want to edit that out or he'll be getting a lot more spam. This kind of thing should really go over PM.

Ok. I see. I forgot this. Thanks.

any thoughts on layout?



was thinking of doing thing like this. but i have been having a pain of a time finding the right rows in the numpad i want.

[malcomkern]

I would like to ask for some help with the LZ-CP, I soldered the diodes, the resistors and the RGB Leds, if I connect the board to my computer only the RGB Led 1 turns red and after sometime starts flashing red slowly. Most of the other leds flash briefly as I plug in the USB cable. How do I check to see if all the RGB Leds function properly? I installed the JigOn software but I am not familiar with it and it seems as nothing changes if I use >Keyboard >Update >All from the menu.

[radish]

Post a pic.

[malcomkern]

Offcourse.

[radish]

In the pic you posted I would do a once over and reflow with rosin. Some joints don't look tight but it's hard to tell from the pic. I found that those leds are really easy to burn. So be careful of making your iron too hot.

[yuktsi]

Offcourse.

Please do as what radish suggested, I had the same problem too.
Reflowing the solder would fix the problem.

[malcomkern]

Oke, thanks for the suggestion. I will do in the weekend.
I will solder the black Cherry lubed switches as well, see how that goes.

Thanks for the help so far.

just make sure to fix the LEDs 1st. if you solder more components you might run into problems trying to identifying and isolating why existing components arnt functioning.

[malcomkern]

Still no change in the led behavior. I did check all my soldering and it looks fine. What are the leds supposed to do when I plug the board into the USB of my computer? How can I further check the leds?

Never mind, just sloppy soldering on my part 
Vomiting rainbow, now 

[malcomkern]

Just to let you all know  The board is finished and working  Thanks for the help, all.
Now the next round of fun begins, selecting a nice set of key caps.

[malcomkern]

And some more questions.
1. How do I get the leds in the special row under de USB working for Numlock, Capslock and Scrollock? Only numlock is working at the moment.
2. My KETC1 KEY seems not to register, if I use my multimeter I can see / hear it makes contact all right.
3. I have 3 switch leds not burning, these are, the V and the / and and the PrtScrn key, electrically they seem oke, I switched out leds and resistors but that didn't help.

Any help is appreciated.

[malcomkern]

Is there some one you can help me with the above questions?

[FrostyToast]

For 2 and 3 I would try and check your diodes and their orientation.
That's the only thing I can think of.

For 1. Its probably in the software. Most toggle keys are and you just have to find the function that controls those behaviour.
For 2 and 3 I would check what frosty suggested, but also make sure to try a different switch and LEDs. Just to rule out the possibility of defective components.

I just assembled my CP but I have no idea how the LED programming works.

Everything can be programmed in the JigOn software.

I know about the software and I downloaded the latest version.
I just don't know what the options for the LEDs means.
After messing around with it for a while, I still don't know what things like "fading + push" means.

[radish]

Any one have a stock bin of the original key map by chance?

Tweaked some stuff, before I saved. Please & thanks

[malcomkern]

This, what your looking for?

[radish]

That's looks like it thanks allot. Somehow didn't think of saving the original layout, ooops.

Anyone with a black bottom or silver bottom want to swap for a red one?
