Assembly
- Order the pcb at e.g. pcbway or jlcpcb
- Order the buttons at e.g. aliexpress
- Order the PH connectors at e.g. aliexpress
- Assemble the PCB, the led is solderable by hand with a fine tip
- Wire up the pcbs to your controller
- You can wire multiple pcb's in series, just go from data out (DO) to data in (DI) and expose only the switch (SW) cable for every pcb to your controller
- Add them as gcode buttons to your config

- Problem: My Leds showing Random colors
- Solution: Add a ~400Ω Resistor on the data line
