If you do not plan to use the adapter in a transmitting mode with an XBee radio, you do not
need the 2-pin header and shunt jumper or the 3.3 Zener diode.
If you do not plan to use the adapter with an SS8, SS16 or SS24 controller, you do not need
the two 1x4 stackable headers.
If you do NOT plan to use an ESP8266 module, do NOT install the 2x4 female header.
If you plan to use the adapter with a Renard Plus or other controller, you do not need the
1x4 stackable headers because you will not be plugging it into a chip socket on the
controller.
If you plan to plug the adapter directly onto the 5-pin header on a Renard-Plus controller,
you need the 1x5 female header mounted on the BOTTOM side of the PCB; you also do not
need the 5-pin male header on the top.
If you want the most future flexibility with this adapter and want to assemble a sort of
"universal snap-in adapter" that can work with either an XBee or an ESSP8266 module,
install all the parts except the L78L33 regulator, the 1x5 female header, the two 1x4
stackable headers and the 2x4 female header for the ESP8266 module. Then later on, you
can simply plug an ESP Snap-In module in place of the XBee module. To connect the adapter
to your controller, you'd use connecting cables from the 5-pin header, attaching them to
appropriate locations on your controller. More information about that is included later.
SS8, SS16 and SS24 installations
If you plan to plug the adapter into the U5 dip socket on an SS8, SS16 or SS24 controller, the Snap-
In PCB has a large hole that can fit over the 47uf capacitor next to the U5 socket. It should fit
perfectly on the SS24 controller, but because the RJ45 jacks are spaced slightly differently on the
SS8 and SS16, the adapter requires a slight modification to fit on either of them; trim the PCB
corner a bit on the indicated "cut" lines for either the SS8 or SS16. The PCB should be cut BEFORE
installing any parts; it can be cut with a Dremel tool or a hacksaw. Go slow and cut accurately. Note
that cutting off any of the corner of the board will remove the 5-pin connection header that's used
for Renard Plus controllers.
SS24/SS16 with
XBee radio
Required parts are
highlighted in
BLUE; note that the
SS8 requires a
larger cut-out in
the upper right
corner of the PCB
than the SS16 or
SS24.

SS24/SS16 with
ESP-01 module
Required parts are
highlighted in
BLUE; note that the
SS8 requires a
larger cut-out in
the upper right
corner of the PCB
than the SS16 or
SS24. A 100uf cap
is suggested in
place of .1uf . Also
remember to
solder the proper
TX/2/0 circuit for
your version of the
ESP firmware.
