Panda Touch Mount Alternative v 2.0

This is a complete replacement for the Panda Touch 5" screen mounting system.

It uses the original PCB with contacts from the original plate.

*UPDATE 2.0*

The updated version of the mount is designed to reuse the original magnets from the plate that came with the device, those magnets can be pushed out using a pin from the back.

I have implemented the pinholes in my design as well in case you'd like to put the magnets back in the original plate.

To create the space for pinholes I had to redesign the hinge a bit, so the new hinge is not compatible with the 1.0 version unfortunately.

I have also added additional slot for the cable lock tab which allows redirecting the cable perpendicular to the screen which hides it from the view better (see last photo).

I've also removed the version embossed on the back.

To complete the build, you will need:

• The original PCB
• Screws to mount the PCB can be reused from the original, I advise using a thin washer or checking the exit hole after tightening the screw for debris (and shave it off if necessary).
• Couple of 3x14mm screws to attach the plate to the bracket
• Original magnets removed from the plate supplied with the panda touch
  

The model is completely support free; this is why you print the locator pins separate (very tight fit but trust me they fit!)

There is couple of channels for cable routing but of course you can just let the cable free directly from the back.

If you decide to use the routing channels, you can lock the cable in place with included locking tabs (press fit)

Happy printing!
