Step by Step Duo-X 2 Installation diagrams

Duo-x 2 Installation Diagrams for v1.5

Duo X 2

When you have disassembled your Xbox you can start to install the chip:

First solder the male pin header into the holes of your Xbox main circuit board (the top 4 holes are not used).

You insert the pin header in the top of the main board and solder it in from the bottom of the main board (you can use "Blue-Tack" to hold the pin header in place while soldering).

Pin Header Install Duo X 2 V1.5

Then solder a wire from point "G" on the chip to point "G" on the top of the main circuit board and do the same for point "A" to point "A" on the main board (shown above).

Duo X 2 BT points for v1.5

Next solder a wire from point "BT" on the chip to point "BT" located behind the eject button (shown above).

D0 points for v1.2 - v1.5

Next solder a wire from point "D0" on the chip to point "D0" on the main circuit board (you can use any of the 2 diagrams show below but we would recommend the using the "bottom point" unless you are very experienced in soldering) you can feed the wire through one of the holes next to where you soldered the pin header.

Now you have finished the soldering, connect the male pin header you soldered earlier to the main board to the female pin header on the chip like the diagram below:

Please Note: In the picture below the D0 point is connected to the top of the main board but would recommend using the bottom point as shown in the picture above.
