| - | When inserting the LED into the board ensure the two longer leasd of the LED goes through the holes marked data out and ground (see photo) - this ensures you have the LED oriented properly. Solder the LED leads and clip off the excess. | + | When inserting the LED into the board ensure the two longer leads of the LED goes through the holes marked data out and ground (see photo) - this ensures you have the LED oriented properly.

If you are not using the DigiLED as a shield onto the DigiSpark Pro and planning on running it at a distance, you only need to connect the specified digital pin (Pin 1) and bottom 3 pins (5V, GND, VIN). You do not need to connect all 6 pins on the right-hand side of the shield. |
| + | =====Chaining:===== | ||
| + | When chaining multiple DigiLED's together, you only need to connect 3 points as a daisy chain using VCC, DO>DI and GND. | ||
| + | |||
| + | For example, LED #1 would need the top 3 pins VCC, DO (out) and GND to connect to DigiLED #2's VCC, DI (in) and GND on the second row from the bottom of the board. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you added LED #3 you would need to connect DigiLED #2's top three pins to the second row from the bottom on DigiLED #3 and so-on and so forth. After DigiLED 1, the side pins and 5V, GND, VIN should not be connected, only the three input and output points for chaining. | ||
