Step 9Make it: Using the Propeller Platform SD and LCD UI
If you're using the Propeller Platform SD and LCD UI, setup is a little different;
1 - The Propeller Platform SD is pre-assembled.
2 - Follow this instructable to put together the LCD UI.
3 - You don't need a Prop Plug. The Propeller Platform SD has a bootloader, so you just unzip this file and copy to the root of your SD Card.
4 - You'll need to add a blue LED and a 22pf Cap. You can get the Blue LED right here, the battery pack is here. The long lead from the LED goes to ground, the short lead goes through the hole marked P7. Connect the cap on the other side of the board to the same holes - doesn't matter which lead goes to which hole.
That's it! Stay out of the sun!

Good project, but the only problem that I can see is that if you leave an LCD display in the sun for long periods it goes all black and can't be read anymore.
