The largest [Dactyl](/keyboards/handwired/dactyl/) variation available from a Dactyl generator. This variation is electronically more similar to the [Dactyl (Pro Micro)](/keyboards/handwired/dactyl_promicro/) as it requires two micro controllers, one per half, instead of the *Dactyl's* original implementation of one microcontroller and an I/O expander.

## Bootloader
|
|
|
|
Enter the bootloader in 3 ways:
|
|
|
|
* **Bootmagic reset**: Hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard
|
|
* **Physical reset button**: Briefly press the button on the back of the PCB - some may have pads you must short instead
|
|
* **Keycode in layout**: Press the key mapped to `QK_BOOT` if it is available
