Installation Tips
- Use low-wattage, fine-tipped soldering iron
- Use flux or rosin-core solder
- Don’t hold the iron on the GBAccelerator or the GBA board too long as you may lift the solder pad
- solid 30-gauge wire is recommended
- Follow wire routing indicated in diagram so wires don’t cross button pads, screw holes, or tall components
- Cut off excess wire length
- The three button connections on the GBAccelerator are interchangeable; it does not matter which one goes to which button
- If alternate button assignments are desired, see button signal list for available connection points
