Got mine today....not sure though, how to attach heatsink to the pcb. I got the triacs mounted on the heatsink, but theres 2 screws and spacers and no nuts. It says to put the screws through heatsink - not sure how theres no more holes besides the 16 for the triacs.

Am I missing something??

Got mine in WA today!
No nuts on the heatsink just use the plastic risers and screw in from bottom of the board. I usually put my heatsink on before the Triacs

I've been here ...

First, unmount the triacs from the heatsink ...

Find the two smaller screws ...

Put a nylon(plastic) washer on one and push it through from the back of the PCB (the unprinted side), slide a spacer over it, and then screw into heatsink from the bottom(There are two threaded holes along the bottom of the heatsink - opposite from where it says "Lynx Express").

Repeat for second screw - the heatsink is held from the backside of the PCB.

Now, put in the triacs and secure with provided nuts - don't tighten them until they are all in. (You'll solder everything shortly)

Once they are all in, tighten nuts.

Solder the triacs as per the instructions.

Viola!

Thanks for a remarkable coop Jeff. The packaging was top notch! And the labeling is da bomb.

Sorry for the late reply, I was traveling on business.

Thank you for you hard work. I got mine when I arrived home last night and everything looks great. I especially like the instruction sheet which was really nice. (I wasn't sure if that was standard or not as this is my first express coop with parts, I got a couple of other boards in the first one).

Anyway, thanks again, I really appreciate it.

Mike
