## Flashing Instructions (Win)
*Read all the instructions, there are a few warnings of things to avoid doing to avoid bricking your Tada68. __It is much too easy to do!__*
1) from the `qmk_firmware\` directory run:
```
$ make tada68:default:flashbin
```
2) Connect your keyboard to Windows computer, hit the reset button on the TADA, the lights will start flashing.
3) You'll see a new drive on your computer called TADA68. Backup the original factory `FLASH.BIN` file thats inside it.
4) Delete `FLASH.BIN` from the TADA drive and copy `tada68_default.bin` that was generated at the root of the qmk directory into the TADA drive.
5) *Do not eject the USB device.* Hit ESC on the keyboard. The lights will stop flashing and your firmware is loaded!
## Flashing Instructions (Mac)
*When flashing the keyboard from a Mac, you must delete some files that are automatically created by the operating system in order to prevent bricking your keyboard. Original information from /u/pawlwall from https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/520cov/using_an_originative_tada86_on_a_mac/*
1) from the `qmk_firmware\` directory run:
```
$ make tada68:default:flashbin
```
2) Connect your keyboard to your Mac, hit the reset button on the bottom of the TADA, the lights will start flashing.
3) You'll see a new drive on your computer called TADA68. Backup the original factory `FLASH.BIN` file that's inside it.
4) Open the terminal and cd to the folder where the keyboard has been mounted
`cd /Volumes/TADA68\ /`
5) Copy over your new firmware to the keyboard
`cp -r <path to your qmk_firmware folder>/FLASH.bin .`
