  • 4x M3 inserts for the front of the “Back” and 4x M3 countersunk screws to assemble the  “Front” (length depends on if you use the V1/V2 and a printed lens or a diffuser sheet)

  • 2-6x M4 inserts for the back (depending on the mounting option)

Setup is easy, connect DIN (LED Matrix) -> 4 (Arduino), +5V -> VCC, GND -> GND
For software SimHub was used, just install it through "Arduino" -> "My Hardware" -> "Setup tool" and choose the correct Arduino and LED Matrix with the connector being "4"

V2:
Added an optional transparent lens to cover the LEDs

V3:
Added BackV2 with improved mounting options and the option to use a 1mm LED diffusor sheet.
