LEDs are polarized and must be soldered in the correct orientation. The cathode (short lead, nearest the flat edge) should be soldered in the **square**, lower, though-hole pad. The anode (long lead) should be soldered in the **round**, upper, though-hole pad. Check the orientation of all LEDs in each group of 8 before soldering into place by visually inspecting the flat edge corresponding with the flat indicated in the silk screen on **front** side of the PCB, and the alignment of the long and short leads on the **back** side of the PCB.
