FunKey is a new product series from Architectronics that extends the functionality of another familiar touch board and is better designed, more affordable and simpler to use.
FunKey Simple:
- 18 keystrokes
- easily reconfigured to any keystrokes using simple app
- all alligator, no "headers"
- touch sensitive using finger, aluminum foil, fruit, etc.
To get the most out of the FunKey, you will also need a set of Alligator Clips and Micro-B cable.
Try this neat trick to reprogram the keys assignments!
- with the board unplugged from the USB
- use one alligator clip to connect the up and down holes
- use another alligator clip to connect the left and right holes
- plug in the board to the USB
- on a Mac, you should see a clickable menu appear in the upper right (need to test on PC)
- click on it to take you to the reconfiguration app
- choose any keystroke for any of the 18 hole pairs on the board, as in the image that appears
click "program" - it should have the new set of keystrokes in its memory, and stay that way unless reprogrammed again
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- alligator clip
- An alligator clip is a spring-loaded metal clip used to make temporary electrical connections to wires, terminals or test points. It is useful for quick bench testing, but it is less secure than a screw terminal or locking connector.
- Headers
- Rows of metal pins used to plug a module into a breadboard or connect it with jumper wires. Pre-soldered headers make the module easier to use straight away without needing to solder the pins yourself.
