| A | Place circuit into circuit frame | -- | 0.50 |
| B | Solder circuit connections to central circuit control | A | 0.70 |
| C | Place circuit assembly in device frame | B | 0.40 |
| D | Attach circuit assembly to device frame | C | 0.30 |
| E | Place and attach display to frame | -- | 0.30 |
| F | Place and attach keypad to frame | -- | 0.20 |
| G | Place and attach top body of device to frame | E, F | 0.35 |
| H | Place and attach battery holder to frame | D | 0.40 |
| I | Place and attach bottom body of device to frame | G, H | 0.60 |
| J | Test device | I | 0.30 |
