Using a screw, nylon washer, and hex nut; 
connect the PING))) module to the plate. Do 
not tighten the screws all the way until you 
have adjusted the PING))) to make sure it is 
being installed straight. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Once you have installed the PING))) 
module, the plate should look similar to the 
one pictured.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Step 5: Repeat (x2) 
 

Once you have completed the first plate, 
use the previous step to build the other two 
plates. When you are finished with this step, 
you should have 3 sensor mount plates that 
look similar to those pictured. 

 

 

 

 
Step 6: Sensor Mount Plate Re-Assembly 
 

You can use the circular cutout on the top of 
the Stingray to route the cables to connect 
to the I/O pins. 
 

Note: Remember which PING))) uses which 
cable; the white wire of the cable will 
connect to an I/O pin in step 8.
