Loosely fit the three faders into their slots in the base as shown, then screw three M3 screws into the front of the base and into their respective threaded holes in the three faders.
Encoder Prep
Screw on the spacers and nuts as shown. This will provide proper spacing to attach to the inside of the walls.
Power Plug
You'll provide 9VDC power to the Motor FeatherWing using a wall wart. Prep a DC jack with short wires as shown to connect to the terminals on the FeatherWing.
Push the plug through the enclosure and then fasten with the provided nut.
Connect Power
Mind the polarity and connect the DC power connector to the Motor FeatherWing's power terminals.
Enclose
Slide the walls over the wiring and into the base. If you hadn't already screwed in the faders, do so now.
Cap It
Place the cap over the enclosure, then screw in the remaining three screws to connect the faders to the cap.
Encoder Knob
Place the knob over the encoder shaft, making sure to leave enough space between the knob and the enclosure for the push encoder shaft to travel when pressed.
Tighten the grub screw with a hex wrench.
Outside Connections
Plug in USB-C to the Feather and DC power. You are ready to code and use the Darth Faders.
