It comes in two variants, USB Mini B and USB C. It supports many many layouts. It also supports both backlight and RGB underglow. The USB C variant does not have a hardware reset switch. USB C to C is not supported. + +Merlin's DZ60 uses +- Layout B, in QMK this is LAYOUT_60_b_ansi. +- USB C +- 50g Zilents +- Arrows are 78g Zilents +- KPRepublic XD64 Case + +## Layers +--- + +Merlin's keymap has three different layers. To switch layers you can use the `MO(X)` keycode, where `X` is the layer you want to switch to. + +### _BL + +This is the base layer also known as layer 0. It is a standard QWERTY layout. It has the `_FL` layer switch key. + +### _FL + +This is the function layer also known as layer 1. It utiizes the following: +- Function Keys +- Navigation Keys +- Audio keys such as Mute, Volume Down and Volume Up. +- `_CL` layer switch key + +### _CL + +This is the control layer also known as layer 2. It utilizes the following: +- RGB Controls +- `RESET` key + +## Non Standard Keycodes +--- +### RESET + +As long `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` is set to `yes` in `rules.mk`, the DZ60 can be put into bootloader mode by holding the `Escape` key while plugging in. However sometmes this doesn't work or is troublesome to do, might as well use the `RESET` keycode to accomplish this. + +### RSFT_T(KC_SLSH) + +Layout B is missing the `?` key and is instead replaced with a `right shift`. This keycode makes it so that the key can be tapped for `?` and held for `right shift`. + +### LCTL_T(KC_CAPS) + +`Caps Lock` is only ever used by tapping, why not use it as a `control` key when held? This keycode makes it so that the key can be tapped for `caps lock` and held for `control`. + + +## RGB Lighting +--- + +### RGBLIGHT_SLEEP + +This is set in `mechmerlin/config.h` so that when the computer goes to sleep, the RGB lights will also go to sleep on the keyboard. They will turn back on when the computer wakes. + +### RGB Underglow Color: Yellow + +This is set in `mechmerlin/keymap.c` in the `matrix_init_user` function. The list of available colors can be found in [`quantum/color.h`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/quantum/color.h). |
