The PocketType Build Guide
Flash your controller
Connect the keyboard to your device using a USB cable.
Hold the BOOT button when pluggin in the controller OR double tap the RESET button QUICKLY. (It might take a couple of attempts)
A file explorer window will pop up, copy the file from above into the directory. The windows should automatically close.
Once the window automatically closes, you can continue with the build.
Build Guide
Bend, fit and solder all the diodes- stripe should be towards the square pad
Bend, fit and solder the two resistors. Orientation doesn’t matter.
Fit all 48 switches. They’ll only go in one way. Solder them!
Fit the two LEDs. The long leg is the positive and goes into the round hole.
Fit and solder the header strips for the controller. Put the short side through the Pockettype PCB, leaving the long side pointing up. Solder just one pin until you are sure they are nice and straight and parallel to each other.
Fit the controller onto the header strips. See above picture for correct orientation. Solder.
Plug in and test. Fit key caps.
