This is the default ISO-DE layout of the Vortex Pok3r Keyboard incl. Multimedia-Keys. More Layer from my own layout will follow. Some tips & tricks are from threads on reddit or other sites. If so i will mention them for credits to them and for you to deep dive if you want.
Made this for documenting my own changes in later layouts to print them out eventually. Feel free to use it :)

If you messed up your layer configuration you can press Fn + R
to reset the actual layer. Be aware that all configuration on this layer will be deleted! The default layer cannot be programmed. But there are layer 2-4 for you to do so. To change the layer press:
Fn + M
on the ISO-DE keyboard for layer 1 (no led underSpacebar
)Fn + ;
on the ISO-DE keyboard for layer 2 (see blue led underSpacebar
)Fn + :
on the ISO-DE keyboard for layer 3 (see red led underSpacebar
)Fn + -
on the ISO-DE keyboard for layer 4 (see purple/pink led underSpacebar
)
Enter programming mode with Fn + CTRL
.
Since Firmware 1.1.14 the media keys are available with these shortcuts: (Thanks to this Reddit article: Guide Modification Pok3r Media Volume Controls)
Fn + Q
- Previous SongFn + E
- Next SongFn + W
- Play/Pause SongFn + S
- Volume upFn + D
- Volume downFn + F
- Mute
The Capslock Key is by far the most useless key for me. So i want to change this key to be the new Fn
-Key. Thanks to Vortex they added this feature via the DIP-Switch 3 on the backside of the keyboard. Just enable the DIP-Switch and you are fine.

I want the left Alt
-key to be the left CMD
-key, the left WIN
-key should be the left Option
-key. On the right side i want the Alt
-key to be the CMD
-key and the CTRL
-key should be the Option
-key. So this should end up in this layout on layer 2:
