Caution: Take extra care with the 2-pin jumper cable (the one with the red wire), not
assembling exactly as shown will cause damage to your Micro Computer / pi-topCEED.
Follow this side if your pi-topCEED has
jumper cables.
The jumper cables offer the most flexible
usage of your Micro Computer’s GPIO pins.
