+==== BOM ====
+BIll of Material
+Allways look for the cheapest seller, the Price may vary heavy!!!
+And look for Local dealers preferred. [[http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=where_to_order_components]]
+== The Buttons ==
+I thaught a long time about how to make a Button PCB that does not explode in material cost.
+The best solution was to buy rubberbuttons from Sparkfun and cut them because the with of Fadercore is fixed by the minimal width of 8 Oleds side by side... 220mm in width / 8 makes a 27.5mm grid. What a pity that the Sparkfun pads are premade with a 25mm grid...
+you will need two of them:

+The PCB is available under: [[https://www.vlrlab.com/home/20-3x8but.html]]
+==== How to get Started ====
+If its your first SMD soldering you can follow this on t1:58 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uiroWBkdFY
+I recommend to not buy solder paste, instead buy some flux-paste like this on Mouser: 590-8341-10ML
+==== Prepare the PCB ====
+Start with the SMD parts and then go on the the conventional parts also on the Bottom side.
+Then go on with the Topside and the LEDs.
+Check the Connections with a Lens.
+==== Prepare the Connection ====
+Connect the core on J8/9 to J1 of the VLR-3x8But board.
+==== Test it in MIOS ====
+\\
+To make it work with MIOS .NGC  File we need to know how the shift-registers are connected.\\
+\\
+**Inputs:**\\
+# Switch Columns  1-8\\
+\\
+**Outputs:**\\
+# ROW Outputs     1-6\\
+# RED LEDs        1-8\\
+# GREEN LEDs      1-8\\
+# BLUE LEDs       1-8\\
+\\
+Assuming that the VLR-3x8But is the first device on the chain of J8/9 we need to configure it like this:\\
+\\
+RESET_HW\\
+\\
+LCD "%C"\\
+\\
+LCD "@(1:1:1)OLED1"\\

+LCD "@(5:1:1)OLED5"\\
+LCD "@(6:1:1)OLED6"\\
+LCD "@(7:1:1)OLED7"\\
+LCD "@(8:1:1)OLED8"\\
+\\
+# In this demo we configure individual brightness levels for the LEDs from EVENT_BUTTON events\\

+Im using my VLR-8oDisp board to show the Values of every item. You can change it to any other type of Display-setting... lcd_pos=6:1:5 {6=Display number : 1= X-axis : 5= Y-Axis (row)}
