Soldered, Editing a lot of stuff and new features in firmware.

I soldered MediaPad. Someone added a wrong LED symbol to KiCad so my PCB was absolutely wrong, I soldered it wrong, and I thought, all was lost.

But then I realized I just needed to flip the LEDs. But I had to put them on a new PCB, because I damaged the first one while troubleshooting why it isn’t working. I found it out after closer inspection of PCB plan.

Funny is also that, that on Hackpad page under Approved Parts they say 20 of the LEDs. But I got only 16. So encoder has no LEDs! I had to compile a second firmware that is made only for 16 LEDs but also the original one with 20 LEDs. So now you can also build a one that doesn’t have encoder LEDs! Like I do!!!

Everything now on GitHub page is correct! I even had to multiple time edit the CAD and .stl files, because in reality they weren’t really good and I used up all of my filament so I hope I won’t have to edit something again, otherwise I am cooked.

Firmware has now better interface, so user is happy. Yeah, that’s all. But it was also a mess to do it.

Well, check out the GitHub Repository. I will push changes tomorrow because it’s really late and this took 2days. I didn’t record a lot of things because they were happening in a small intervals and the troubleshooting and I just thought why to record it and I was also scared that staff could refuse that footage.
