Once the board is in the socket, gently press the processor board down, grab the set screw and tighten it with a
Phillip's head screwdriver:

Once the processor board is secure, your assembled MicroMod system should look similar to the image below!

Note:

 There is 

technically

 no way to insert the processor backward since the key prevents it from mating with

the M.2 connector. As an extra safeguard to prevent inserting a processor improperly or with a poor
connection, the mounting screw will not match up if the processor is not plugged in entirely.

Assembling External Sensors

For users with the Soil Moisture Sensor and/or the Weather Meters Kit some extra assembly is required. We have
detailed assembly instructions for both of these peripherals in their respective Hookup Guides. You can find them
here:
