overview
The main goal is to describe how to build or how to order the opensensor and as a discussion board dealing with the opensensor. Currently the opensensor board has version number 3.0. We offer here the full documentation for the hardware design of the opensensor. Also we offer to ship the opensensor or parts of it. Furthermore completed software projects on the opensensor are described and the software is available too.

step 1
• Step 1 - backside• Take the PCB (printed
circuit board, the green big thing) and look at the backside as in the picture.

step 2
• Step 2 - backside• Now solder U3
(MAX3232) on the PCB. We have two versions of this unit, a thin and a wide version. In the picture we have the thin one.

step 3
• Step 3 - front• Now you have to turn
the PCB to the front. The backside is ready (you may come back to the backside to cut some of the legs of some of the units).
