PicoKeyer-Plus

05/25/2014 (Firmware V4.5)

Page 15 of 19

If you built your kit with the battery holder (recommended), locate
the battery and remove it from its protective packaging. Note that
the flat side is marked with a plus sign (+). This side will be up
when the battery is inserted into the battery holder. Insert the battery
into the battery holder. If you have done everything right, you
should hear the keyer send “73” in Morse code through the speaker.
Congratulations! Your kit is complete.

If you have the optional cabinet, now would be a good time to mount
your keyer in the cabinet. Make sure the speaker is underneath the
holes drilled in the top cover.
