Custom Enclosure Installation Procedures
Because the space is limited inside this case,
you will need to remove the display header
and solder wires directly to the board and
to the display shield.
You will need to add this wire band
which I included in your kit.

Assuming that you have an assembled kit then follow all
of these procedures. If you have an unassembled kit, then
install everything on the kit except the 3 tactiles, 2 LEDs,
Speaker, Display header, Power switch

For the bottom panel, first attach the Geiger Bot module to the
panel and solder the purple wire to the Gbot spot on the board and
the white wire to ground. Then with the standoffs on the board,
insert the upside down USB plug into the USB hole. Insert the red
LED from the inside to peak out the bottom panel then apply a hot
glue line connecting the board to the back panel an also to keep the
red LED in place.

When using hotglue on this case, be careful as too much heat may
cause the case to warp or have a noticeable texture caused by too
much heat. Just apply a little at a time, allow to cool and add more.

I have already added wire to the switches and LEDs, so following
this color coded wire diagram will guide you where to solder the
wires to the board.
You will also need to connect the SD card writer and the PCB to the
display shield with the supplied color coded cable. Follow this
diagram to solder the wires into the correct places.

Both LEDs on the board need to be removed. Replace with LEDs
installed on the case. The display shield has a SMD LED that can be
removed and replaced with the green one to the right of the SD
card insert opening on the upper left side of case.

To keep the piezo as low as possible to avoid any
contact with the board below it, solder the included
wire very close to the bottom of the leads then cut
the excess lead away. Then you can add a bead of
hot glue on top of the soldered areas.
