### Hardware Assembly
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Order PCBs**: All Gerber files are available in `/4_Schematics and Boards Layout`
|
||||
2. **Source Components**: Bill of materials (BOM) in `/4_Schematics and Boards Layout/4_7_Production Files`
|
||||
3. **Assembly**: Follow the assembly guide in `/10_docs/assembly_guide.md`
|
||||
4. **Antenna**: Choose appropriate array for your version
|
||||
5. **Enclosure**: 3D printable files in `/10_docs/Hardware/Enclosure`
|
||||
1. **Order PCBs**: Production outputs are under `/4_Schematics and Boards Layout/4_7_Production Files`
|
||||
2. **Source Components**: BOM/CPL files are co-located under `/4_Schematics and Boards Layout/4_7_Production Files`
|
||||
3. **Assembly**: Use the schematics in `/4_Schematics and Boards Layout/4_6_Schematics` together with the production outputs above; a standalone assembly guide is not currently tracked
|
||||
4. **Antenna**: Choose appropriate array files for your target variant
|
||||
5. **Enclosure**: Mechanical drawings currently live in `/8_Utils/Mechanical_Drawings`
