h3. Procedure
# Prepare Sensor/LED sub-assemblies
Repeat this procedure twice to assemble (2) *Sensor/LED sub-assemblies*
## Take (1) *HS004 - OH090U Hall Effect Sensor* and (1) *HS005 - Diffused Blue 3mm LED* from your supplies
!0h090u1-400x302.png!
## Solder the LED's anode (long leg) to pin 3 of the sensor (the data pin) and solder the LED's cathode (short leg) to pin 2 of the sensor (the ground pin) using the following steps
!led-plus-sensor.png!
### Align the LED to it sits on top of the sensor with the long leg next to pin 3 and the short leg next to pin 2
### Wrap the LED's long leg around pin 3 to create a secure physical connection
### Wrap the LED's short leg around pin 2 to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the two joints formed in the steps above to secure the connections between the LED and the sensor
## Cut approximately 40 cm lengths of black, red, and green hook up wire
## Strip both ends of the (3) lengths of hookup wire
## Solder the hookup wire to the ends of the sensor pins (red to pin 1, black to pin 2, and green to pin 3) using the following steps
!led-plus-sensor-and-leads.png!
### Wrap one end of the red hook up wire around pin 1 to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the joint formed in the step above to secure the connections between the red hookup wire and pin 1
### Wrap one end of the black hook up wire around pin 2 to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the joint formed in the step above to secure the connections between the black hookup wire and pin 2
### Wrap one end of the green hook up wire around pin 3 to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the joint formed in the step above to secure the connections between the green hookup wire and pin 3
## Apply sufficient heat shrink to the red and green joints to cover them completely
## Apply sufficient heat shrink to assembly to completely cover the solder joints of all three leads, leaving some overlapping the LED to give it strain releaf
## Apply larger heat shrink to the three leads made from the hookup wire to complete the *Sensor/LED sub-assembly*
# Prepare the *HS002 - Category 5e Jack*
## Cut approximately 20 cm each of the following colors of hookup wire: (2) green, (1) red, (1) black
## Strip one end of each length of hookup wire
## Use a punch down tool to connect the hookup wires to their corresponding positions on the *HS002 - Category 5e Jack* for pinout option A
### Punch down the stripped end of the red hookup wire to Brown wire position of the Cat5e Jack
### Punch down the stripped end of the black hookup wire to Brown/White wire position of the Cat5e Jack
### Punch down the stripped end of a green hookup wire to Green wire position of the Cat5e Jack
### Punch down the stripped end of the other green hookup wire to Blue/White wire position of the Cat5e Jack

# Finish Assembling the Sensor Board
Reference the image below for the following steps
!sensor-board.png!
## Connect the black leads
### Test fit the black leads from both *Sensor/LED sub-assemblies* and the *HS002 - Category 5e Jack*, cutting the wires to length as necessary (remember to leave room for the stripped wire)
### Strip the three black wires from the step above
### Position the three black wires above in the correct holes of the *HS001 - Double-Side Prototype PCB* and bend them over to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the joint formed in the step above to secure the connection among the three black leads
## Connect the red leads
### Take the (2) *HS003 - 750 OHM 1/2W 1% Axial Resistors* and position them according to the diagram (making sure to bend their leads to secure them in place
### Test fit the red leads from both *Sensor/LED sub-assemblies* and the *HS002 - Category 5e Jack*, cutting the wires to length as necessary (remember to leave room for the stripped wire)
### Strip the three red wires from the step above
### Position the three red wires above in the correct holes of the *HS001 - Double-Side Prototype PCB* and bend them over to create a secure physical connection
### Cut a short length of red hookup wire to bridge the red leads according to the diagram
### Strip both ends of this additional length of red wire and place it according to the diagram, bending its ends over to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the joint formed in the step above to secure the connection among the three red leads
## Connect each of the green leads
Repeat these steps for each of the sensors' green leads according to the diagram
### Test fit the green leads from one of the *Sensor/LED sub-assemblies* and the *HS002 - Category 5e Jack*, cutting the wires to length as necessary (remember to leave room for the stripped wire)
### Strip the two green wires from the step above
### Position the two green wires above in the correct holes of the *HS001 - Double-Side Prototype PCB* and bend them over to create a secure physical connection
### Apply solder to the joint formed in the step above to secure the connection among the two green leads
The Sensor Board is now complete.
