Prepare the Elite-C – Bastard Keyboards

Solder the Elite-C to the MCU Holder PCB

If you have the v2 of the shield, please check the instructions here:

Please read carefully:

Do not install the audio jack yet !!
Do not install the reset button yet !!
Read all the instructions first, and then follow them carefully using the pictures
It is very important you follow those instructions, otherwise the ports will not align with the case
It is very important you follow those instructions, otherwise the cables might not be wired correctly

Instructions for the top:

Prepare 12 and 6 header pins
Insert the Elite-C into the Shield PCB using the header pins
Make sure the long part of the header pins is on top (Elite-C side). Use the pictures below for reference
Make sure the legends align. Use the indications on the shield
Do not solder the audio jack or the reset button yet !
Make sure the elite-C is pressed against the PCB - there should be no gap between the Elite-C, the header pins, and the holder PCB
Solder the pins, making sure the elite-C is still flush with the header pins
Use the picture below for reference

Instructions for the bottom:

Switch the PCB and Elite-C assembly, making sure the header pins stay in
Make sure the PCB is pressed against the Elite-C - there should be no gap between the Elite-C, the header pins, and the holder PCB
Solder the header pins
Trim the header pins

Solder the reset button to the PCB

First, prepare the hole:

Take the audio jack and gently push it in the case’s audio jack hole
Apply gentle pressure until the audio jack is flush with the outside part of the case. Do not press on the pins
Once inserted, gently remove it

Then, solder in part of the jack:

Slide in the MCU assembly (Holder, elite-C, audio jack) into the case’s 2 holes
Be gentle ! If the audio jack won’t go in, carefully take the assembly out and try again
Screw in the PCB using 2 * M4 8mm screws
Make sure the USB-C and audio jack are aligned into the case
Finish soldering the audio jack
Unscrew the assembly
