	*Using the screwdriver with the number 2 philips bit, screw-tighten the wire clamp at the right-bottom hole of the lug box.		*Using the screwdriver with the number 2 philips bit, screw-tighten the wire clamp at the right-bottom hole of the lug box.

	~~==OLD Testing from Zero==~~

	*Arduino Testing - Preparation
	*Note: For this testing procedure, you will need a computer with Arduino software, Python and pyserial loaded.
	~~# Solder 100 Ohm resistors to the negative (short) ends of three LEDs.~~
	~~# Connect the Positive ends of the LEDs to Ports 11, 12 and 13 of the Breakout Shield~~
	~~# Connect the resistor ends to GND port of the Breakout Shield~~
	~~# Double-check the connections!~~
	~~# Connect the Arduino to the Computer using a USB Cable~~
	~~# Download [[Arduino Environment]]~~
	~~# Open the Arduino Environment~~
	~~##Double click on executable text file in Ubuntu~~
	~~##Select the board that you are using (Duemilanove 328) under Tools / Board.~~
	~~# Select the Appropriate Serial Connection under Tools / Serial Ports.~~
	~~##Troubleshooting - if Tools / Serial Ports is blanked out, connect Arduino board~~
	~~##Generally, the appropriate serial connection will be the number of the lowest unused USB port starting at 0.~~
	~~# Download the <html><a href = "http://openpario.mime.oregonstate.edu/documents/1250">CEB_Testing_Program.pde</a></html>~~
	~~# Open the CEB Testing program in last step in the Arduino program by going to File / Open...~~
	~~##Note: if the above file is not in its own folder, Arduino Environment will create a folder in Ubuntu~~
	~~# Load the CEB Testing Program into the Arduino using the Upload Button in File / Upload to I/O Board~~
	# Download the Python-based <html><a href = "https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B2ZOu2AF-TF5MTgzMjM1MjgtYzQwMS00ODQ5LTlkMTgtYjg3YmI1NzRkNmY0&hl=en_US">Arduino Testing Program</a></html>
	# Open the Python-based <html><a href = "https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B2ZOu2AF-TF5MTgzMjM1MjgtYzQwMS00ODQ5LTlkMTgtYjg3YmI1NzRkNmY0&hl=en_US">Arduino Testing Program</a></html>
	~~##Run python code in Terminal - python CEB_Testing.py~~
	~~##You may need to install python-imaging, python-imaging-tk, python-serial, arduino and avrdude in Linux to make it work~~
	~~##Try this command in Debian-Based Linux Distros such as Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install python-imaging python-imaging-tk python-serial arduino avrdude~~
	##You may need to install <html><a href = "http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software">Arduino for Windows</a>, <a href = "http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/">PIL</a> and <a href = "http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial"> Pyserial</a> if you are using Windows.</html>
	~~##If you are using a Mac, I have no idea what you'll have to do.~~
	~~# Connect to the Arduino using the GUI button~~
	~~#'''Arduino - Testing''' - Click the Blink Test Button to Check if the Arduino is working. LED 13 should blink on and off.~~
	~~# Click the Sensor Test Button. The Arduino’s sensors should cause LEDs 11, 12 and 13 to blink on and off in the presence of the magnets.~~
	~~# Click the MOSFET Testing Buttons. The green LEDs on the MOSFET should blink on and off accordingly.~~
	~~#'''Solenoid Connections''' - Cut five 2’ pieces of 16-gauge black wire and five 2’ pieces of 16-gauge red wire.~~
	~~# Strip ¼” off each of the five black and five red wires.~~
	~~# Tin the ends of each of the wires.~~
	~~# Attach black wires to each of the negative terminals of the MOSFET connectors on the Detroit Fab-Lab board.~~
	~~# Attach red wires to each of the positive terminals of the MOSFET connectors on the Detroit Fab-Lab Board.~~
	~~# Run the black and red wires through an available hole in the Electronics Box.(Should we use the left-side hole for this???)~~
	~~# When all wires have been checked, tighten each of the cable clamps.~~
	~~#'''Solenoid Testing''' - Remove the bridge connector between the Common Ports of each solenoid unit.~~
	~~# Connect each of the five red-black solenoid wire pairs to terminals in the solenoids. Black wires should attach to the Common ports and Red Wires to the Solenoid a and Solenoid b Ports~~
	~~# Double-check the connections!~~
	~~# Test the Solenoids with the Python-based CEB Press Testing program.~~
