Quick start guide for using the Shield
Assembly notes
The EasyVR Shield 3 is provided with separate through-hole
headers to connect the Shield to Arduino boards and other
microcontroller-based boards adopting an Arduino compatible
interface.
The EasyVR 3 module is provided separately and it should be
fully assembled before it is soldered on top of the Shield.
Make sure they are both well soldered in order to prevent
electrical issues (see highlighted areas in the picture below).
Some practical guides to hand soldering:

 Sparkfun How to Solder: Through-Hole Soldering
Before you mount the EasyVR 3 module on the top, make sure you have assembled the pass-through
headers on the EasyVR Shield 3 in the correct position and orientation. It is easier if you place all the
connectors through the Shield with their plastic housings faced down on your desk, so that they can stand
straight and vertical, and allow soldering of the metal leads easily from the back side of the board, which
is now facing up.
As the last step, insert an already assembled EasyVR 3 module on its reserved footprint on the Shield,
make sure it is plugged all the way in, and then complete soldering of male headers on the bottom side.
The end result should be similar to the following pictures:
Note: Pay attention to the tail of male headers (red areas) on the bottom of the EasyVR 3
module when you plug the Shield on a base board and make sure they are not touching other
metal parts or connectors. If necessary you can trim the tails to prevent undesired contacts.
