Poker II Remap Caps/Ctrl
« on: Wed, 30 October 2013, 15:45:21 »
Hey all,

I tried to find other topics about this - because I'm sure it's been talked about - but I was wondering what the best way to switch Caps Lock and Control on my Poker II. If it's a software, are there any that can save and switch profiles? The reason I ask is that I'm thinking of getting an HHKB soon and wanted to be able to switch to my Poker II with reds for some gaming, but would like to retain Ctrl in the HHKB position all the time. Thanks for your help!

The Poker 2 is fully programmable so you can easily change it, here is a translated version of the user manual: http://geekhack.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=42554.0;attach=19145

Stop calling it fully programmable, because it isn't.

Maybe you can do it with AutoHotKey software.  You can't do it with just the Poker II hardware.

Fantastic idea! By the way, can I borrow some cash?  ;D

But seriously, it's going to happen at some point....

I wish it were that easy! Thanks for the input though.

Shouldn't it be possible to program it on the pn layer and then use the dip switch to permanently enable the pn layer?

There is no DIP switch that does that on the Poker 2.

Oh you're right, I misunderstood something I have read. So yeah I would recommend AHK too then.
