Title: Opening the Rosetta case!
Post by: Tony T on July 10, 2018, 12:17:08 pm

Afraid this is a really dumb question but having received my shiny new Rosetta I now want to fit an RS232 dongle so tried opening the case.  I released the four lugs and the case opens a small amount but no further so rather than forcing it and damaging something I thought I would seek some advice!   Thanks. Tony

Hi Tony

This is very easy
There is a slide off section at the opposite end to the antennas. In the first 20 or so Rosettas to be shipped the sticker was wrapped around the whole case. After the first 20, and all new ones that are delivered we cut the sticker along the two interfaces so that this end section is easier to take off.

Yours sounds like one of the first units. So look at the Rosetta and take a sharp hobby knife and cut along the top and end joints through the sticker. Be carful. 

When this is done you will be able to slide off the end section and gain access to the USB slots.

Regards

Keith

Thanks Tony

We now we cut every one so this will not be an ongoing issue for our customers
Kaisan is a technique I learnt from the Japanese over the last 30years
We call it continuous improvement and we need the help of our users to let us know what you want.
