| ==== How to get Started ==== | ==== How to get Started ==== | ||
| - | If its your first SMD soldering you can follow this on t1:58 : http://www.youtube.com/ | + | The LEDs are mounted to the Edge of the Meterboard to get a very slim form. That makes it a bit harder to solder them but i guess that no one wont be able to do it. |
| - | I recommend to not buy solder | + | To solder |
| ==== Prepare the PCB ==== | ==== Prepare the PCB ==== | ||
| - | Start with the SMD parts and then go on the the conventional parts also on the Bottom side. | + | Well you should now by now how to solder Headers... :-) |
| - | Then go on with the Topside and the LEDs. | + | |
| - | Check the Connections with a Lens. | + | |
| ==== Prepare the Connection ==== | ==== Prepare the Connection ==== | ||
| - | Connect the core on J8/9 to J1 of the VLR-3x8But board. | + | Connect the SEL, Row1-8 & Row9-16 with each a DOUT Header. |
| ==== Test it in MIOS ==== | ==== Test it in MIOS ==== | ||
| \\ | \\ | ||
| - | To make it work with MIOS .NGC File we need to know how the shift-registers are connected.\\ | + | I use a Encoder connected directly |
| - | \\ | + | Assuming that the DOUT is the first device on the chain of J8/9 we need to configure it like this:\\ |
| - | **Inputs: | + | |
| - | 1# Switch Columns | + | |

| - | **Outputs: | + | |
| - | 1# ROW Outputs | + | |
| - | 2# RED LEDs 1-8\\ | + | |
| - | 3# GREEN LEDs 1-8\\ | + | |
| - | 4# BLUE LEDs | + | |
