How to solder the Seeedstudio Danger Shield?

Hi folks,

I recently purchased the Seeedstudio Dange Shield which comes unsoldered. As I am rather a programmer, not an electrician I have some trouble in finding out which resistor to solder where on the board. Is there a list, which resistor needs which capacity?

I already found http://wiki.nycresistor.com/wiki/Danger_Shield_1.0 but just the pictures are a little unsufficient.

Ok, just found it. It is given in the table of the posted link.

In the link you gave, scroll down to the "Components" section. The left column of table there has IDs (DIS1, IC1, JP1, LED1-3, R1-3, R7, etc). Those IDs are also printed on the PC board. (It appears that the resistor values are also printed on the board, but the ID will be there for all the other components too.)

If the resistors values are not identified on the pieces in the kit, you can use the color codes at Wikipedia to find out which pieces in the kit are what value resistor.

Hope this helps.
