2 Install Stabilizers and the USB-C daughter board on the base PCB.
 * Place Thick(1.0mm) gaskets to match the position of the USB slot.
 * Connect 4-pin JST CABLE between [USB-C board] and [base PCB]

 

 

3 Install Stand-offs on the base PCB, for the auxiliary PCB.
 * Place Thin(0.5mm) gaskets on every screw.

 

 

4 Assemble Base PCB on to the PCB Bracket.
 * Insert the FFC Cable on the Base PCB before assembly.
 * For FPC Cable, plate side of the cable goes bottom. (bottom contact)
 * After inserting the FPC Cable, you see the blue part of the cable from the top.

6 Assemble OLED display and auxiliary PCB.
 * Install the OLED display(FFC cable) BEFORE assembling it.
 * To install the OLED, gently SLIDE OUT the OLED socket,
   insert FPC cable, and slide back in.
 * It is recommended to open the FFC socket before screwing
   the auxiliary PCB in.
 * Place the tapes. Careful, they are fairly strong.
 * The screen position needs adjustment after covering the Top Housing.
 * Leave one screw hole that is under the display empty.

 

 

 

7 Place the Rubber Pads. Make sure the legs fit in the hole.

 * Don't forget to connect FFC Cable between base - auxiliary PCB.
