Layout

The default button layout for Malinka:

btns

Additionally:

  • the system button is configured as "BTN_C"
  • it can be used as a hotkey!
  • the default configuration is with "select" button as the hotkey
  • to change the volume, press System+L or R
  • to hibernate the device, press System+A
  • to mute/unmute the sound, press System+B
  • to hide/show overlay, press System+Y

Connectors

  • plugging in headphones automatically turns off the speakers
  • USB-C is only for charging. It's still preferred to not use a high voltage charger.
  • RED means charging, GREEN means that the battery is charged.
  • User USB is meant only for USB peripherals. Trying to charge the battery from micro-usb will damage it permanently, and the device may even blow up!
  • external antenna connector is needed only if you want to use the NRF24L01 module. Any SMA antenna should fit.
  • you can connect a monitor/tv through Micro HDMI. Remember to change resolution!

Switching the power off while the device is running may corrupt some data! Remember to execute a system shutdown first. Malinka will force a shutdown once the battery is almost fully drained.
