STEP 1

Peek at the Pins

First, let's check out the pins on the back of your Makey:bit! This is where you’ll plug in your servo motor cables. Need a closer look? Take a peek at the cards that came with your kit.

STEP 2

Pop In the Makey:bit

Now get your Makey:bit in place! Slide it through the large hole in the center of your monster’s base, starting from the front. Gently push it into place. It's almost monster time!

STEP 3

Plug In the Power

Now that your Makey:bit is in place, flip your monster over so you can see the back side. Find the cable from your 180-degree servo motor and get it ready. Make sure the brown wire is on the right side. Plug it into the three pins on the bottom left of your Makey:bit, with the brown wire still on the right.

Here’s a quick reminder: Brown (-) goes to GND Yellow (signal) goes to P0

Nice and neat!
