The Zynthian Kit 3 is designed to use JST connectors that can't be plugged reversed, so connecting everything is really straight-forward:
The Zynthian Kit 3 is designed to use JST connectors that can't be plugged reversed, so connecting everything is really straight-forward:
===Connect the Ribbon Bus cable===
Connect the Main Ribbon Bus cable to the RBPi's 40-pin header and also to the Zynaptik module. The red wire is pin 1, so if you are looking at the case from the front side, it should be at right.

===Connect the Controllers===
Connect the 4 controller cables to the 4 controller connectors on the ZynScreen (CTRL1, CTRL2, CTRL3, CTRL4)
[[File:ZynScreenConnect.JPG|600px]]

===Connect the MIDI connectors & activity LEDs===
Connect the 3 cables from the MIDI connectors to the MIDI-IN, MIDI-OUT and MIDI-THRU connectors on the Zynaptik module.

{{NoteBox|If you don’t connect the status LEDs, the MIDI-OUT and MIDI-THRU won’t work unless you short jumpers JP1 & JP2 in the zynaptik board.}}
===Connect the Audio Output Jack connectors===
Connect the audio output jack connectors to the audio-output header on the Hifiberry soundcard:

The black wire on the "R" pin, white on the "L" one and red on "GND" (middle).
{{NoteBox|Some kits have flipped the red and white wires. This is not a problem. Simply look at the black wire.}}
===Connect the Audio Input Jack connector===
This step depends of the specific model of your soundcard:
====HifiBerry DAC+ADC Standard====
Connect the audio input jack connector to the audio-input header on the soundcard using the 3-pin Dupont connector:

[[File:dacplus-adc-top audio-in.jpg|600px]]
[[File:IMG_2416.JPG|600px]]
[[File:IMG_2416.JPG|600px]]
The black wire should be connected to pin 3, red wire to pin 2 and white wire to pin 1. Looking at the first photo, numbering is left to right.
{{NoteBox|Some kits have flipped the red and white wires. This is not a problem. Simply look at the black wire.}}
{{WarningBox|Due to hardware problems, Hifiberry has recently changed (September 2019) [https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/data-sheets/datasheet-dac-adc the specification of the DAC+ADC]. It seems that the Balanced Audio input doesn't work like expected and it works like a simple not-Balanced input. You can read more about this subject on [https://discourse.zynthian.org/t/new-official-kit-v2-audio-input-is-here/3013/25 this forum thread].
<br>
So, for taking profit of the stereo connector that should be a mono balanced input but it's not balanced at all, you better get a stereo unbalanced input by connecting both audio channels to the connector. The problem is that the 3-wires Dupont connector included in official kit doesn't allow to do it easily. You have to cut the second wire (red or white) and solder a single Dupont connector, connecting it to the pin 5 on the Hifiberry. Please, check the [https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/data-sheets/datasheet-dac-adc/ Hifiberry DAC+ADC specification]}}
====HifiBerry DAC+ADC PRO====
Connect the audio input jack connector to the audio-input header on the soundcard using the three 1-pin Dupont connectors as indicated in the image:
[[File:dacplusadcpro-top-audio-in.jpg|600px]]
In such a way, you have the balanced input connected to the Right channel. If you want to use the Left channel, please, take a look to the [https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/data-sheets/datasheet-dac-adc-pro Hifiberry DAC+ADC PRO specification].

If you are using the official Zynthian SD Image, the first thing you should do after booting up your Zynthian Box and having the controllers working OK is update the software:
- connect the Zynthian Box to your router using a RJ45 cable
- connect your Zynthian Box to your router using an ethernet cable
- '''update zynthian software''' from the admin menu
- from the admin menu, click '''update software'''
- from the admin menu, click '''restart UI''' (or '''reboot''')
The update process can take some time. Be patient. If you get some ERROR message while updating, please, [https://discourse.zynthian.org/t/problems-updating-the-software-from-the-admin-menu/386 ask in the forum]. You can send a photo or description of the error message.

In this section i will try to give you some tips for locating and solving the problems you may have.

For finding and solving problems, i really recommend to connect a HDMI display to the RBPi. It will give you accurate information during the booting sequence. Also, if you connect a USB keyboard, you can login into the system and get extra information, inspect the logs, etc.

===The display don't show the zynthian splash screen on boot===
In that case, probably the system is not booting correctly. You could try to connect a HDMI display and see if the system is booting. If you can't see the booting sequence, then you should re-burn your SD-card with the Zynthian image. Also, check that your image file is correct by using the SHA1 signature.
===You get the zynthian error screen with the IP===
Your hardware seems to be incorrectly configured. You should access the webconf tool and configure your hardware.
===Your controllers doesn't work===
You make a mistake while connecting the controllers or your hardware (wiring layout) is incorrectly configured. You should access the webconf tool and configure your hardware.
===You can't solve the problem===
===You can't solve the problem===
Finally, i have included here some detailed schemes. People hacking the standard Zynthian design would find it very useful. Also, if you have some problem and need to "debug", you would find it useful too.
