+## The 'caps lock backlight' feature
+
+The Iron180 firmware allows the user to adjust the backlight according to the caps lock key. This will toggle *all backlight LEDs* according to caps lock, enabling backlight when caps is on and disabling when it is off.
+
+This option is specially useful if you are only interested in the caps lock LED and want it to work as an indicator; however, it must be noted that this works keyboard-wide, so if that is your case you should only solder the caps lock key LED and none else.
+
+This option is disabled by default; in order to enable it, you must un-comment the last line in `config.h`:
+
+ // Turn backlight on-off according to capslock
+ #define CAPSLOCK_BACKLIGHT
+
+Then compile and flash the firmware.
