Hardware Hookup
Ready to start hooking everything up? Check out the wiring diagram below
to see how everything is connected.
Polarized
Components
Pay special attention to the component’s markings
indicating how to place it on the breadboard.
Polarized components can only be connected to a
circuit in one direction.
Connect 3x jumper wires to the female 3-pin header on the servo. This will
make it easier to breadboard the servo.

Open the Sketch
Open the Arduino IDE software on your computer. Coding in the Arduino
language will control your circuit. Open the code for Circuit 8 by accessing
the “Tinker Kit Guide Code” you downloaded and placed into your
“Examples” folder earlier.
To open the code go to:
File > Examples > Tinker Kit Guide Code >
Circuit_08
You can also copy and paste the following code into the Arduino IDE. Hit
upload, and see what happens!
