Hardware Hookup
Build the Block Stack
Using the Edison Hardware Pack, attach the Edison to the Base Block.
Attach the Base Block to the Pi Block. Secure them in place using screws and standoffs.
Connect the LCD
We need to connect the LCD to the Edison via the Pi Block. Solder headers to the LCD (if necessary), and follow the Fritzing diagram below to connect it to the Edison.
NOTE: If you are using an LCD from PJRC, a 100Ω resistor is needed between the LED and VCC pins on the LCD.
NOTE: If you are using an LCD from Adafruit, you will need to solder the jumpers IM1, IM2, IM3 on the back of the board in order to use SPI.
