Using your Emerald module
Generally speaking, most of the useful features provided by Emerald are activated or
accessed through the companion software and hardware tools. The module itself is quite
simple, with just the magnet and the LED light.
3.1
Using the Emerald magnet
Emerald includes a magnet that can be used both for mounting the module onto a magnetic
surface or to trigger actions (disabling Flight mode, checking the status of a mission).
You may fix the magnet to a metallic wall or insert a screw to fix it onto other types of
surfaces.
The provided magnet has a “weak” and a
“strong” side. The metal ring is close to the
edge on the “weak” side of the magnet. The
deeper recess on the other side indicates
“stronger” side.
3.1.1
Mounting Emerald with the magnet
Simply place the module onto the magnet as shown
here, with the strong side facing the module.
