- Page 4 Assembly Instructions Step 1 Solder 1N4148 Diodes under the graphic as shown in the picture. The black line from the diodes goes to the top. Step 2 Solder the x3 10k Ohm resistors; R4, R5, and R6. Those components have no specific orientation.
- Page 5 Assembly Instructions Step 5 Solder the x2 5.1k Ohm resistors; R9 and R10. These components have no specific orientation. Step 6 Solder the x2 Zener diodes; D15 and D16. The black line is at the bottom. Step 7 Solder the x2 22pF capacitors; C4 and C5. Note: Do not over-pull the legs through the PCB.
- Page 6 Assembly Instructions Step 9 Solder the fuse, F1. This component has no specific orientation. Step 10 Solder the x2 switches; SW68 and SW69. These components have no specific orientation. Step 11 Solder the Crystal Y1. These components have no specific orientation. Step 12 Solder the USB socket.
- Page 7 Assembly Instructions Step 13 Solder the electrolytic capacitor, C1. Negative (-) goes at the top. Step 14 Solder the x2 chip sockets. The small one goes to the U2 and the big one goes to U1, as in the picture. Step 15 Solder the LEDs as shown in the picture.
- Page 8 Assembly Instructions Step 17 Solder all the switches according to your desired layout. Add the stabilizers. Step 18 Screw the x6 M2 screws; H5, H6, H7, H8, H9, and H10. The screws are inserted from the top of the top PCB. Step 19 Screw x2 M2 nuts on each of the 6 screws from the bottom.
- Page 9 Assembly Instructions Step 21 Put the x4 M2 screws from the bottom of the bottom PCB. These screws are for the plexiglass. Step 22 Insert the bottom PCB and the top PCB together. Secure the x4 plexiglass screws with the x4 spacers. Step 23 Place the plexiglass on top of the spacers and secure it with x4 M2 screws.

- Page 11 Programming Instructions Using VIA Currently, media and mouse keycodes cannot be used using VIA. The keyboard is shipped with VIA enabled. If you have programmed using QMK configurator and want to go back to VIA please flash the VIA keymap from our website. Step 1 Download VIA from: https://github.com/the-via/releases/...
- Page 12 Programming Instructions Using QMK Step 1 Download the latest QMK Toolbox from: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox/ releases If you are using Windows download the “.exe”. If you are using MacOS download the “.pkg”. Step 2 Install the downloaded package. Step 3 Create your desired keymap from: https://config.qmk.fm/#/gingham/ LAYOUT_60_ansi_split_bs_rshift Select the desired layout first.
- Page 13 Programming Instructions Using QMK Step 5 Press FIRMWARE button to download the “.hex”. Step 6 In QMK toolbox press Open and select the downloaded “.hex”. Select atmega328p from the microcontroller menu. Step 7 Press and hold the BOOT button. Press and release the RESET button.
