## Installing the kinT replacement controller in your Kinesis keyboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The easiest way is to remove the existing cable from the Kinesis keyboard, and
|
|
|
|
|
use a regular USB cable instead (going through the existing hole in the case, no
|
|
|
|
|
mod required).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to keep using the existing Kinesis cable, you could build the [kinX
|
|
|
|
|
open hardware
|
|
|
|
|
hub](https://michael.stapelberg.ch/posts/2018-04-17-kinx-usb-hub/), which uses a
|
|
|
|
|
compatible connector.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Another way is to cut open a USB cable and solder it onto the matching pins of
|
|
|
|
|
the Kinesis cable. You can confirm the pinout in the hardware design files for
|
|
|
|
|
the kinX hub.

* The kinT supports both, the older Kinesis Advantage (KB500) **and** the newer
