b. Place the display in the headers (98,99). When you turn your Altura on, if some of the
segments don’t light up on your display it probably means some of the pins should be bent a
bit more.

20. Distance Sensing Modules: The distance sensors are connected to the PCB via the 4-wire
ribbon cables (Part#CB-06-10). You will need to build a case for your Altura before you can
permanently install the distance sensors, but we can temporarily hook them up now for testing.
a. Slide the 4 pin female header (on the ribbon cable) onto the male header (on the distance
sensor). The two ridges on the female header should be facing away from the metal
cylinders on the other side of the module (100,101).

b. Very gently bend the male header’s leads a little over 90 degrees, so it ends up looking like
the picture (102-104). Do the same thing to the other distance sensor.
c. Place the sensor bracket (part #HD-60-10) over the twin metal cylinders. Slide it down snug
as far as it will go. Repeat for the other sensor. (105)
