How to Use VIA on Multix 104 VIA V2: Remap Keys Easily

Quick answer

You can remap keys on your Multix 104 VIA V2 using the VIA software, which lets you assign new functions to any key without altering the physical switches.

How to remap keys on Multix 104 VIA V2

1. Step 1: Open VIA software and select your keyboard: Launch the VIA application. It should automatically detect your Multix 104 VIA V2. If not, check the USB Type-C connection or restart the software. Common mistake: opening the software before plugging in the keyboard — reconnect and relaunch.
2. Step 2: Choose a key to remap: Click on any key in the on-screen layout. A pop-up will show its current function. To change it, select a new action from the dropdown list (e.g., remap Caps Lock to Control). Common mistake: forgetting that some keys (like Fn) are layer-specific — check which layer you're editing. Always verify the active layer (default, layer 1, layer 2) before remapping to avoid unexpected behavior.
3. Step 3: Save and test your layout: After making changes, click 'Save to Keyboard'. The new mapping is stored on the board, so it works even when the software is closed. Test each remapped key in a text editor. Common mistake: not saving before unplugging — changes are lost if not saved.
