Mounting a tactile switch on a Eurorack Control Deck
N8 Eurorack Control Decks provide a Jack-Pot-Switch (JPS ) cell matrix. Each JPS cell allows you to mount various components to meet your Eurorack module’s requirements. The layout of the components is matched to our pre-drilled Eurorack panels.
Each JPS cell on an N8 Eurorack Control Deck can accommodate either a 9mm Alpha RD901F-40 style pot, RV09AF-40 style trimmer, 3.5mm PJ-301M style jack, sub-miniature toggle switch, 6mm tactile switch or LED.
N8 Eurorack Control Decks can accept 2-pin 6mm x 6mm tactile switches
Tactile switches are mounted using the vertical “ABC” pads, with one pin soldered to the lower hole of the “A” pad and the other to the “B” pad.
The switch’s connections appear at the Control Deck’s edge connector, as indicated on the board’s rear.
N8 pre-drilled Eurorack Panels have 7mm diameter holes to accept a range of components in each position.
For perfect alignment, position the tactile switch and other components on your N8 Eurorack Control Deck and affix the panel using the bolt-in components before soldering.
Check that your switches are square to the Control Deck and centred in the holes. Adjust as needed before soldering into position.
