Pots ‘n’ sockets PCB
1.
Solder all of the toggle switches. Please note that there are 2
on/on
switches and 4
on/off/on
switches, the lower 4 switches are all
on/off/on
type. The back of the PCB
is your friend here, as it states clearly either
on/on
or
on/off/on
for each switch.
2.
Place all sockets on the PCB,
making sure the ground tabs line up with the PCB’s
ground pads
–
be careful because there are two different orientations - then place
the panel over them. This will assure that the sockets are correctly positioned. Flip
the whole lot over and solder the sockets into place. Use cut off resistor legs to
connect the sockets’ ground tabs line up with the PCB’s ground pads.
3.
Place and solder all 16 poteniometers.
4.
Cut female headers to size and solder them into place. Make sure that they stick out
of the bottom of the PCB.
5.
Put all 26 LEDs through their pads. Present the panel to the PCB, flip the whole lot
over, make sure the LEDs stick though the holes in the panel, solder in place.
All done! Go play! Expect confusion!
