Installation Instructions
1.With the pishop.co.za logo facing down, push the four 20mm screws through the holes facing up. Each screw gets an acrylic 3mm spacer.
2. Install your SSD on the NVMe Base and slide it onto your acrylic base. Use the four black standoffs you received with your NVMe Base to hold your base in place.
3. It would be a good idea to mount the Active Cooler onto your Raspberry Pi 5 board before sliding it onto your base. Connect your NVMe ribbon cable to the Raspberry Pi board.
4. Use the four 18mm brass standoffs to secure the Raspberry Pi 5 board in place.
5. Install the 4 acrylic sides. Don't forget to slide the button into it's place.
6. Add the top and secure it with the four 6mm screws. It can be a bit tricky lining up all the holes.

The BBC micro:bit is a pocket-sized codeable computer with motion detection, a built-in compass, LED display, and Bluetooth technology built in.
It measures 4cm by 5cm, is available in a range of colours, and designed to be fun and easy to use. It can be coded with something simple in seconds – like lighting up its LEDs or displaying a pattern – with no prior knowledge of computing.
It also connects to other devices, sensors, kits and objects, and is a companion to Arduino, Galileo, Kano, littleBits and Raspberry Pi, acting as a spring board to more complex learning.
Each element is completely programmable via easy-to-use software on a dedicated website that can be accessed from a PC, tablet or mobile.
Get creative, get connected & get coding with the micro:bit go. A complete set containing all the parts and inspirational ideas to get started with the micro:bit. Each micro:bit go contains 1x micro:bit, USB cable and battery holder. The micro:bit go is the quickest and easiest way for children to get going with the micro:bit. The micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that you can code, customise and control to bring your digital ideas, games and apps to life. Measuring 4cm by 5cm, and designed to be fun and easy to use, users can create anything from games and animations to scrolling stories at school, at home and on the go - all you need is imagination and creativity. The micro:bit is completely programmable. That means each of its LEDs can be individually programmed as can its buttons, inputs and outputs, accelerometer, magnetometer and Bluetooth Smart Technology.
- Microprocessor: 32-bit ARM® Cortex™ M0 CPU
- A 5x5 LED matrix with 25 red LEDs to light up and can display animiated patterns, scrolling text and alphanumeric characters
- Two programmable buttons. Use them as a games controller, or control music on a smart phone
- On-board motion detector or 3-AXIS digital accelerometer that can detect movement e.g. shake, tilt or free-fall
- A built-in compass, 3D magnetometer to sense which direction you're facing and your movement in degrees and detect the presence of certain metals and magnets
- Bluetooth® Smart Technology. Connect the micro:bit to other micro:bits, devices, phones, tablets, cameras and other everday objects
- 20 pin edge connector: This allows the micro:bit to be connected to other devices such as Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Galileo and Kano through a standard connector
- Micro-USB controller: This is controlled by a separate processor and presents the micro:bit to a computer as a memory stick
- Five Ring Input and Output (I/O) including power (PWR), ground (GRD) and 3 x I/O.
- System LED x 1 (yellow)
- System push button switch x 1
Applications
- Embedded Design & Development
- Education

The BBC micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that introduces you to how software and hardware work together. It has an LED light display, buttons, sensors, a speaker, microphone and many other input/output features that, when programmed, let it interact with you and your world.
Visit What is the micro:bit? to find out more or explore all the features in depth through short videos.
You will need a computer, tablet or phone to write and send code to the micro:bit, but once the code is on the micro:bit it works as a standalone device with just the battery pack. Visit getting started for support taking your first steps with the micro:bit.
The Micro:bit Educational Foundation produces free coding tools and teaching resources to support you as you explore the potential of the micro:bit:
- Choose your perfect programming tool in Let's Code:
- Run whole class coding sessions easily with micro:bit classroom
- Teach block-based coding with Microsoft MakeCode or text-based coding with the micro:bit Python Editor
- Explore our free resources for teachers including:
- Quick projects for beginners and more advanced users
- Curriculum-linked lessons and units of work
- Professional development courses and events like webinars and code-alongs
- Classroom resources such as student handouts, reward certificates and posters
As well as givings students a hands-on approach to coding, the micro:bit is an engaging classroom tool that gives students confidence to try new things and get creative with technology.
Get started with the Raspberry Pi with one of our pre-boxed kits for home, industry and education.
These kits are perfect for beginners that are just just getting exposed to the Raspberry Pi, Media enthusiasts looking to stream online content with Kodi, developers looking to exploit the many advantages of the RPI's GPIO pins and anybody looking to get some cool goodies at a great price! They contain all of the essential items that you need to get up and running in no time.
What's in the box?
1 x Official 5V 3A Power Supply in White
1 x 1m micro HDMI cable
1 x 32GB preloaded micro SD card with 64bit Raspberry Pi OS pre-loaded
1 x Official Pi4 Red/White Case
Want to take your kit to the next level?
Turn your RPI into a Media Centre
Grab yourself a remote control, install LibreELEC or OSMC when setting up your RPI and you'll be streaming in no time. You can even add a wireless keyboard, mouse or other similar controllers
Want a cheap eco-friendly PC
Grab a Keyboard and Mouse, select Raspbian when setting up your RPI and you'll be browsing the web, sending emails, editing spreadsheets and watching videos just like you're used to with a desktop/laptop.
We know you love retro gaming!
RetroPie allows you to turn your Raspberry Pi into a retro-gaming machine Check out our Arcade section, whether you just want a retro control or a mini DIY arcade cabinet we have what you're looking for.
Did somebody say Robotics?
We've got some cool beginner's items in our robotic section
Our Kits come with the latest version of Raspberry Pi OS pre-installed, While we will certainly try our best to assist with any software related questions we cannot offer any kind of official support on community driven, open source, or non-PiShop produced proprietary software.
NOOBS, Raspbian, RetroPie, LibreELEC and OSMC are all examples of open-source software, please visit the developer's respective websites for more info.
A whole bunch of other really cool technical info can be found here.
Where do I start?.........Getting Started with Raspberry Pi
We designed this GPIO PCB to assist you with the MicroPython introduction tutorial found on Raspberry Pi Foundation projects. No soldering required. We will be directing you with links to the different sections of the Raspberry Pi Foundation’s introduction while supplying the code and a few fun projects on our page right here.
At the end of the tutorial we’ll be including some webpage projects for fun. You can find their webpage introduction here and our tutorial here.We included the following circuits on the board for coding/testing:
1 x RGB
3 x LED
1 x buzzer
1 x button
1 x potentiometer
Learn how to write the code to individually use the above mentioned modules. You'll also learn how to pair some of them up with exciting results. Eg. use the three LEDs to display a bargraph or progress meter indicating the value generated by the potentiometer.
