A motorized development platform
STEP 7 - Insert mikroBUS
™
socket plates
The Buggy comes with three additional
mikroBUS
™
socket plates. Pick either one and slip
it inside one of the three slits on the main board,
marked mikroBUS 1, mikroBUS 2, and mikroBUS 3.
STEP 10 - Attach top bar
The top bar connects the two side panels and
keeps the Buggy rigid, while also providing slots for
soldering additional electronics. Notice that each
side panel has four dierent slots for placing the
top bar. You can use whichever one suits you best.
STEP 8 - Solder mikroBUS
™
socket plates
While holding the mikroBUS
™
socket plate inside
the slit with your nger, ip the Buggy. Solder
the plates, making sure to cover each of the eight
contact points. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for the
remaining two plates.
STEP 11 - Solder top bar
Solder the top bar to each side panel. You can
always unsolder it later if you’d like to to change
its position.
STEP 9 - Set side panels in place
Next, position the two side panels. You won’t be
soldering them yet, but pay attention to place the
panels in the correct direction: the lower part faces
forward, where the white and yellow LEDs are.
STEP 12 - Solder side panels
With the top bar soldered, ip the Buggy. Solder
the two side panels to the main board; there are
two contact points for each panel, one in each
corner of the main board. Now ip the Buggy back
on its wheels. You’re done assembling!
