Switch/light Mod For X2 Lite
« on: January 17, 2003, 10:40:00 PM »

cool.gif  fans...... I got Rat Shack part numbers for ya too!!!!!!


BUY THESE
275-663 Mini Toggle Switch DPDT
271-1312 150 Ohm resistors
276-304 Green LED 2.1 v
276-079 Snap in LED Holders (optional)
a small spool of 24 AWG wire

........I think you know where the wire will be used... if not then you probably have no business modding your Xbox........



now the easy part.....

Installation===================================
on the toggle switch there will be 6 tabs

12
34
56 ------------unused


connect tab 2 to the LED
connect LED to a 150 ohm resistor
connect the Resistor to the yellow hard drive wire

EXAMPLE:
switch pin 2-----------------LED------RESISTOR-------+5 Hard drive wire

============================================

now connect 4 directly to the Black hard drive wire

EXAMPLE:
SWITCH PIN 4----------------------------- GROUND HARD DRIVE WIRE

============================================

Now to wire up the X2 LITE

Connect pin 1 to either of the on/off pins in the middle of the chip

EXAMPLE
SWITCH PIN 1----------------------------- ON/OFF X2 jumper pin

============================================

Connect pin 1 to either of the on/off pins in the middle of the chip

EXAMPLE
SWITCH PIN 3----------------------------- ON/OFF X2 jumper pin

============================================

As you can see 5 and 6 are unused......

NOW IT IS UP TO YOU TO DECIDE WHERE YOU WANT TO MOUNT THESE.................



that is IT plug in and play away........ The light will be on when the chip is on and off when the chip is off............

Now you really have an X2 LIGHT  



PS. mine worked first try... so I know it is good! But if you han't the skillz to do this super easy mod..... don't blame me when you screw up.......
