You can choose to use a precision IC-mount or solder the MCP23017 directly to the PCB. We prefer an IC-mount so if you need to change the IC in the future it’s an easy job, the choice is yours ;) If you choose to use an IC-mount note that it has polarity! The MCP23017 has polarity as well, the dot on the main PCB notes for pin 1, the must be corresponding with the dot on the MCP23017.

We recommended to use 2x8 2,54 male headers instead of 2 1x8 2,54 male headers on both sides of the Wemos S3 mini. This makes soldering the Wemos S3 Mini on the main PCB much easier.

# Installation of the Software.
You have done it; all parts are on the main PCB now! Before we continue to build the clock together we first want to test the displays, so it's time to upload the software to the Wemos S3 Mini. To do this we need [Visual Studio Code.](https://code.visualstudio.com/Download), [node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download) and [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install).

If you sure all displays will work properly it's time go on with the assembling of the clock.
Make sure all displays work, before completing the clock in the last step.
