Flat ribbon connector for Pepper

FatJak

Hi there.
I finished to built the Pepper few days ago and i'd like to test it with a Pd patch in my Eurorack case but the flat ribbon connector seems not to be appropriate : 16 pins on the case and on the Pepper, but 10-pin to 16 flat ribbon connector in the box... and it's impossible to plug the 10 pin plug without bending anything.
Any ideas ?
Thanks.

The connector on Pepper is designed to fit 16-pin PSU cables, but it works as well with 10-pin versions. You can just chop off the top 3 rows of pins on Pepper

A bit of context: the above is assuming you have a 5V regulator installed on Pepper. The 16 pin from the PSU is only required if you are planning on using the PSU's 5V and set the jumpers on Pepper accordingly. We do recommend running it with the on-board regulator, as its performance is often better than a PSU's 5V rail.
