This step is a little bit tricky because the bolts & nuts are tiny, and it have some slack. Don't press too much the nuts. The PCB have to bend a little bit, but not too much. You should be capable of moving the display pushing the borders with your fingers. Later, when the screen is on, you will fine adjust the position for having the margins equalized.

For fixing the display to the case cover, you have to use this set:

This is an easy connection guide, based in colored wires and images. If you want to know and understand the details (or if you have problems and need to ''debug''), you should take a look to the [[#Technical_Reference|Technical Reference]].
+
The new Zynthian Kit 2 is designed to use JST connectors, so connecting everything is really straight-forward:
 
  −
===Connect the Dupont Wires to the Main Ribbon Bus===
     −
====Controller Module 4-pin Dupont Wires (x 4)====
+
* Connect the Main Ribbon Bus cable to the RBPi's 40-pin header and also to the All-In-One module
   −
The next scheme shows the numbering/naming used for encoders and switches:
+
[[File:IMG_4741.JPG|600px]]
   −
[[File:zynthian_ui_legend.png]]
+
[[File:IMG_1474.JPG|600px]]
   −
Take the 4 x "20cm 4-pin Dupont Connector Wires". These wires are used to connect the 4 controller modules to the RBPi GPIO:
+
* Connect the 4 double JST cables to the 4 controller connectors on the All-In-One module (CTRL1, CTRL2, CTRL3, CTRL4)
   −
[[File:Controller_dupont_wires.jpg|600px]]
+
[[File:IMG_4744.JPG|600px]]
   −
You have to connect it to the middle male connector of the Ribbon Bus Cable following the next scheme:
+
[[File:IMG_1479.JPG|600px]]
   −
[[File:wiring_scheme_controllers_single.png|600px]]
+
* Connect the 2 JST cables from the MIDI connectors to the MIDI-IN and the MIDI-OUT/THRU connectors on the All-In-One module. Note that currently only 2 connectors are available in the official aluminum case, so you have to choose what do you prefer: MIDI-OUT or MIDI-THRU ;-)
   −
You can leave disconnected the two purple wires. It's more comfortable to connect it to the 2in1 module after pluging the Main Ribbon Bus to the RBPi.
+
[[File:IMG_1465.JPG|600px]]
   −
'''Note:''' While connectig the wires, the red wire of the Main Ribbon Bus must be at left. The red wire is ALWAYS the #1!
+
At this point, your Zynthian Box should look something like this:
   −
====2in1 Module 6-pin Dupont Wire====
+
[[File:IMG_1409.JPG|600px]]
   −
Next, you take the "10cm 6-pin Dupont Connector Wire". This is used to connect the 2in1 module to the RBPi GPIO:
+
* Connect the 4 x Controller Modules following the right numbering: from top to bottom and from left to right.
   −
[[File:2in1_dupont_wire.jpg|600px]]
+
[[File:zynthian_controllers.png|600px]]
   −
You have to connect it to the middle male connector of the Ribbon Bus Cable following the next scheme:
+
[[File:IMG_1412.JPG|600px]]
   −
[[File:Cable-schema-2in1.png|600px]]
+
* Connect the Jack connector to the auxiliar audio-out connector on the HifiBerry soundcard. It's the 3-pin JST connector that you soldered before:
   −
'''Note:''' While connectig the wires, the red wire of the Main Ribbon Bus must be at left. The red wire is ALWAYS the #1!
+
[[File:IMG_1489.JPG|600px]]
 
  −
In that point you should have something like this:
  −
 
  −
[[File:Zynthian_mounting_ribbon_wiring.jpg|600px]]
  −
 
  −
===Connect the Main Ribbon Bus to the RBPi===
  −
 
  −
It's time to connect the Main Ribbon Bus to the RBPi GPIO. When looking to the case from the front side, the red wire must be in the right, like in the photo above.
  −
 
  −
It's also time to connect the two purple wires to the 2in1 module if you haven't done before. This two wires are for the upper switches: CH(1) and LS(3).
  −
 
  −
===Connect the Controller Modules (x4)===
  −
 
  −
This step is a bit tricky. If you followed the instructions above, you have soldered the pin-rows in the bottom side of the controller PCBs, so numbering is reversed when looking from the bottom. You can use a little trick: rotate the PCB 180º and the numbering is "left to right" again ;-)
  −
 
  −
Anyway, if you take a look to the next photo, you shouldn't have any problem. Brown/green wires are #1.
  −
 
  −
[[File:Zynthian_mounting_controllers_wiring.jpg|600px]]
  −
 
  −
'''Note:''' Some encoders have a different pin ordering. If you bought the encoders by yourself, perhaps you have to change A and B pins (brown<=>red, green<=>blue).
  −
 
  −
===Connect the 2in1 Module===
  −
 
  −
Connect the 6-pin dupont wire to the 2in1 module. Numbering is from left to right (top to bottom in the photo) and pin 1 is the brown wire:
  −
 
  −
[[File:Zynthian_mounting_2in1_top.jpg|600px]]
  −
 
  −
Also, if you haven't done this before, connect the DIN-5 connector (MIDI-IN) to the 2in1 module. It's the 2-pin connector labeled as MIDI-IN.
  −
 
  −
[[File:Zynthian_mounting_2in1_case.jpg|400px]]
  −
[[File:Zynthian_mounting_connectors.jpg|400px]]
  −
 
  −
===Connect the Jack connectors===
  −
 
  −
If you haven't done this before, connect the Jack connectors to the auxiliar on-board audio-out connector in the HifiBerry soundcard. It's the 3-pin connector that you soldered before:
  −
 
  −
[[File:Zynthian_mounting_hifiberry_3pin_connector.jpg|600px]]
      
===Connect the Display===
 
===Connect the Display===
   −
And finally, connect the ribbon's 26-pin connector to the Display's male side connector.
+
And finally, connect the ribbon's 26-pin connector to the Display's male side connector. Put attention to the orientation. The red wire should be the pin 1 that as marked in the display's PCB surface.

   −
If you get the Zynthian UI, then you should start by testing that your controllers are working OK.  
+
If you get into the Zynthian UI, then you should be in the 'Layer Selection' screen. Let's start testing that your controllers are working OK.
 +
 
 +
1. Push 'select' to create a new layer. You should get into the 'Engine Selection' screen.

   −
If it doesn't works, try pushing the 'LS' controller. Perhaps you have cross-wired the 3 & 4 controllers and in that case, you have to fix the wiring. If it doesn't work, try pushing the other two controllers and rotating the controllers. If something happens, most probably you have reversed the wiring order when connecting the controllers, or perhaps you have changed some wires while connecting the main ribbon bus. Double-check the wiring again.
+
If it doesn't works, try pushing the 'snapshot' controller. Perhaps you have cross-wired the 3 & 4 controllers and in that case, you have to fix the wiring.
