Buttons Guide ENG

What's in the box?


1 PCB

2 Screwdriver 

3 Coin battery

4 Acrylic casings

5 LED

6 Plastic bolts

7 Plastic standoffs

8 Plastic buttons’ caps

To get a bunch of smaller casings
from the kit, you’ll need to break
one large acrylic piece.



But please, be super careful when
doing this to make sure you don’t
damage the parts you need.



After breaking it, you’ll end up with four separate pieces
of acrylic casings. If you find there’s any excess acrylic in
the holes of the casings, just gently push it out.

This is what your
casings should look like:



Remove the protective foil from both sides of the casings now.





Your casings should be all nice and transparent now.



Now, let’s dive into the
exciting assembly part!

Grab two of the identical-looking casings from the
photo and carefully place them onto the PCB.







Now, let’s grab all the white pushbuttons and gently
slide them into the holes in the casings.







To make sure they stay in place
and don’t fall off, we’ll need
to fasten them securely.

Here’s the trick: Take this specific casing and place it on the top
front part. This way, you’re locking those pushbuttons in position.





The front side should look just like this.



Now, let’s move on to the next step – getting the casings onto the back side.





We need to secure the casings
in place so they don’t fall off.



To do that, grab the bolts and attach them from the front,
and then slide the standoffs onto the back.



Now, fasten the standoff using your fingers.




Once you’ve attached all the bolts and standoffs, your Buttons should look like this:




In the end, you have to add the LED here.
Pay attention to the polarity of the LEDs as you connect them.

Plus and minus signs on the LED are marked with
cut-off (-) and rounded (+) parts on the LED.



Turn on the Buttons by using the On/Off switch on the right.
After that, you can have some fun experimenting with
different sounds by pressing the buttons in the center.
Each button produces a unique sound, and when
you press them, the LED will light up.

Also on the right side is a
headphone jack, which allows you to listen to music
without being disturbed.
We hope you enjoyed  putting Buttons together and learned
something new.
