How to Assemble and Install an AXISdapter

Step 5Connecting to your Playstation 3 controller

Connecting to your Playstation 3 controller
Take a look at both sides of your small ribbon cable that cable with your kit. You'll notice that the wires in the cable are only exposed on one side; there is only insulation on the other side. Take a peek at the FPC connector on your freshly assembled board. You'll notice that the pins that make contact with the ribbon are only present on the top. Go ahead and insert the ribbon cable into the connector on the AXISdapter, but you must make certain that you insert the ribbon into the FPC connector with the shiny exposed contacts facing up.

Take the main printed board from your Playstation 3 controller and remove the plastic button membrane from the connector on the circuit board. Insert the ribbon cable into the connector in its place.
