Shield Headers
The Ultimate GPS Logger shield comes tested assembled with a GPS unit and microSD socket
already on it, but you'll still need need to put headers on so you can plug it into an Arduino
We don't pre-assemble the headers on because there's two options! You can either use plain 0.1"
male headers (included with the shield) or Arduino Shield Stacking headers (http://adafru.it/85).
Assembly with male headers
Most people will be happy with assembling he shield with male headers. The nice thing about using
these is they don't add anything to the height of the project, and they make a nice solid connection.
However, you won't be able to stack another shield on top. Trade offs!
If you want to go with male headers, break off the
36-pin long stick into either 2 x 8pin and 2 x 6pin or
1 x 10pin, 2 x 8pin and 1 x 6pin (depending on how
many headers your Arduino has and which version
it is)
Place the header onto your Arduino, with the long
pins down.
