Helix Main Board 

Assembly and Setup Manual

Overview 

This is the basic assembly and setup instructions for the Helix Main Board v2.  It is not the purpose of this document 
to teach soldering techniques or basic electronics.  If you need assistance in this area there are several other sources 
on the internet for this type of information.   
 
The Helix Main Board can be assembled in two different configurations.  The first configuration is as the Helix 
Network Controller.  There is only one Helix Network Controller in a Helix Network.  The Network Controller is 
responsible for starting/stopping the show, playing the MP3 songs and providing the synchronization pulses to the 
other controllers. 
 
The second configuration is the Helix Network Node.  All Helix Main Boards that are not the Helix Network Controller 
are Helix Network Nodes.  The Network Node doesn’t have the Real Time Clock (RTC) or the MP3 player.  In the 
assembly notes the parts that are not needed in a Network Node are identified. 
 
The assembly and setup will follow these steps: 

1)

 

Initial assembly of the main board 

2)

 

Initial power up of the main board 

3)

 

Assembly of the MP3 player 

4)

 

Final assembly of the main board 

5)

 

Configuration of the MicroSD Card 

6)

 

Initial testing of the main board 

7)

 

Final testing of the Helix Network Controller or Helix Network Node 

 

The Helix Main Board is fairly complicated to assemble.  If you have little experience with PCB assembly you may 
want to consider assembling the Helix Daughter Board first. 

 

If you have any suggestions or problems with this manual or assembly of the Helix Main Board please 
email the developer at:
