2.3.1
The standoff and screw listed in Table B-2 are installed at the mounting hole shown in
Figure 2-1. The standoff goes on bottom, and the screw on top.
2.3.2
1. Remove any PICmicro microcontroller that may be in the evaluation socket.
2. Connect the USB cable to the PC and the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit board. The
It is easiest to use this board when it lays directly on a bench top.
2.3.3
This board plugs into the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit’s expansion header J3 and must not
cover the LED array. There should be no change in the status LEDs on the PICkit 1
Flash Starter Kit board after it is plugged in.
2.3.4
If you would rather use the MCP6S92 PGA, take it out of the anti-static bag and replace
the already installed MCP6S22 PGA.
1. Plug this board into, and directly above, the Signal Analysis PICtail Daughter
