1. Switch plates can be removed by simply lifting off the top layer once the top housing is removed.
Transfer the silicone gaskets from the original plate (Ex: PC plate) to your desired replacement plate (Ex: FR4 plate).

2. Swap in your desired switch plate. (Ex: FR4 plate)

3. Reattach the ribbon cable and top housing to complete the switch plate swap.

1. With the keyboard open, remove all of the internal components except for the bottom layers with the wireless battery cutout.
NOTE: There is a rubber pad (B) in wired model, please remove (B), only leaving battery cut pad (A).

2. Install the wireless module by lining up the plastic pins with the corresponding slots on the rear of the socket foam. There are visual indicators to help guide this process. Once the plastic pins are lined up, apply some pressure to the four corners of the module until they click into place.

NOTE:
When connecting the MAKR 75 Wireless Module to the PCB, please make sure these two connectors are fully seated. (Pic 1)

You can do this by gently pushing on the silver part of the wireless module (Pic 2) until you hear a click.

If you do not hear a click, stop pressing and return to Step 2 to make sure all plastic pins are aligned before pushing on the silver part again.

When the MAKR 75 Wireless Module has been successfully installed, a white LED will turn on when the keyboard is powered. (Pic 3)
