The Vortex Race 3 is a great mechanical keyboard, but using it with MacOS requires some adjustments. We need to reposition and reprogram the modifier keys. Unfortunately the Race 3 does not support the online MPC, so we will have to do this using the on-board programming mode.
This guide is heavily based on a gist by arogulin. It only adds a bit of formatting and a few minor notes.
For better understanding we will use the following naming convention for the key positions: L1L2L3SpaceR1R2R3
- Reset everything. Press L3+R1 for 5 seconds. Release the keys when the white led stops blinking.
- Choose a progammable layer (and led color) by pressing R2+RShift several times. I chose red (layer 1).
