Toggle Switch

Use the silicone ribbon cable to create a 2-wire strand that is 9 inches (22cm) long.

Solder the wires to the terminals on the toggle switch. Use the middle and far left or right terminals.

Parts Prep

Get the various components ready to connect to the PropMaker Feather. 

• STEMMA QT cable
• Toggle Switch
• Continuous Servo
• Servo Horn
• VL53L1X Sensor

Connect Toggle Switch

Insert one of the wires from the switch to the ground pin on the Feather screw block terminal. 

Insert the second wire to the button pin on the Feather screw block terminal.

Use a flat head screw driver to secure the wires to the Feather screw block terminal.

Connect Servo

Plug the 3-pin header into the servo headers on the Feather, making sure the ground colored wire (usually brown or black) is connected to the ground pin, red/orange to +V, and yellow to signal.

Install the selected servo horn onto the shaft of the servo.

Remove Tape

Using tweezers (or some other appropriate tool), CAREFULLY remove the protective tape over the sensor, as seen in the image. There is a small tab on the side of the tape that you can use to remove it.

Connect Sensor

Use the STEMMA QT cable to connect the sensor to the Feather.

Power Test

Connect the Feather to your computer's USB host port to power on the circuit.

The CircuitPython project code and files should be added to the Feather's USB drive.

Adjust Servo Sensitivity

Locate the potentiometer on the bottom of the servo.

Use a small screwdriver to adjust the potentiometer until the servo stops moving. Gently turn the pot until the movement and speed is set to a desirable setting.
