Before setting up an Action to control the project, you need to configure the components attached to the MagTag.
Navigate to the Devices page (https://io.adafruit.com/devices) and click the MagTag we just set up.
You will be redirected to the Device Page. From here, you will connect parts to the MagTag.
Add Display to MagTag
To add the E-Ink display to the MagTag, click the "+" symbol on the Device Page to bring up the component picker.
On the Component Picker, Search for the MagTag Display and click it.
Change the text size to 32px. Click Create Component.
The MagTag Display component should appear on the device page.
Add Servo to MagTag
A servo is used to raise and lower the flag. To add the servo to the MagTag, click the "+" symbol on the Device Page to bring up the component picker.
On the Component Picker, Search for the Generic Servo, click it.
Change the Servo Pin to pin D10. Click Create Component.
The servo should appear on the device page.
That's it! With the MagTag hardware configured, you can move onto adding Actions to control the MagTag.
