Cutout
To create the opening in the tombstone, we designed a cutout with jagged edges and printed out a paper template.
Paint cracks
We used a foam cutter tool to create the opening and painted the inner edges.
Matrix Portal wires
Connect the power and ground wires with the included hardware.
Matrix Brackets
The two bracket parts are joined together with glue or M3 screws and nuts.
Attach Acrylic
Our Black LED acrylic softens up the LEDs and keeps the colors looking vibrant.
You can attach acrylic to the display using ProTapes glue dash sheets.
Just attach small pieces to the corners and remove the protective backing.
Then just line up the acrylic with the edges and stick it over the display.
This makes the display show up much better on camera so you can have it in the background of your video calls.
Attach Brackets
Use two M3 screws to attach the brackets to the back of the matrix display.
Align Matrix
Carefully align the Matrix display to the cut out on the tomb. Mark the position of each bracket.
Attach to Tomb
Use four M5 screws to secure the matrix display to the tombstone.
Mount Battery
Position the battery and battery bracket close to the Matrix Portal board.
Secure the battery bracket with two more M5 screws.
Tombstone Feet
Use short wood screws to secure the two feet to the foam tombstone. Each foot has two mounting tabs. The mounting holes are 6mm in diameter with 92mm spacing distance.
