Arduino Sensor Shield V5 0 Manual ((exclusive))

The Arduino Sensor Shield V5.0 Go to product viewer dialog for this item.

The Arduino will continue to run off its USB or barrel jack power, while the external supply safely drives the high-current servos through the shield's digital rail. Step-by-Step Hardware Guide Mounting the Shield

Ensure your Bluetooth or wireless module is not conflicting with (TX) pins if you are using USB programming.

This indicates insufficient current. Remove the SEL jumper and use an external power supply capable of delivering at least 1A to 2A of current.

Align the header pins of the Sensor Shield V5.0 with the corresponding female headers on your Arduino Uno/Mega. Gently press the shield down until it sits securely. Step 2: Power Selection (SEL Jumper)

4-pin header (GND, VCC, SDA, SCL) for I2C devices. The Arduino Sensor Shield V5

Near the external power screw terminals, you will find a 2-pin header labeled (or sometimes unmarked, holding a black plastic jumper cap).

The Sensor Shield V5.0 features an external power terminal block (labeled ) and a crucial jumper cap labeled SEL . Understanding this jumper protects your Arduino from drawing too much current.
