Z-Wave module pinout to make it compatible with Pi b+

[Yomet]

Strange. The Pine64 shop shows no adapter board:


(Nor do they show the antenna coil)

This is the previous version that using Mitsumi ZWave chip. Since Sigma Designs no longer selling the ZWave chip to Mistsumi, we force to use the Sigma Designs module.

But why bother with a removeable adapter board, why not solder the Z-wave chips directly on to the adapter? 

Can the Sigma module be used at all without the adapter?

We need to secure down this batch of boards which already have the build in adapter. If we order from Sigma Designs, the lead time is 16 weeks and there will be more complain about us fail to deliver. In long run, we will use the sigma module without the adapter.

@tllim: Will you then honor a replacement of Z-wave boards? I.e. you send me the new Sigma Design boards without the adapter that I ordered (when they become available) and I return the two boards with adapter that I received?

@MarkHaysHarris777: My soldering skills are NOT up to par for desoldering and re-soldering components to a PCB, and I assume that most people here are in the same boat, and even if my skills were good enough for that I did not buy a kit but a finished product. If someone wants to start taking apart and reassembling the components then it should be by choice but it should not be necessary.
