This package consists of the compass mast and bracket, electronic compass, and the necessary hardware.� It also includes the wire and receptacles to attach it to the OOPic II Expansion Board v2.x or above or the parallel programming port on either the OOPic R or OOPic II.�
If you are going to connect to the OOPic II Expansion Board v2.x or above a 4 receptacle is included.� If you want to connect the sensor to the program port on the OOPic-R or OOPic II/II+ a 5 pin receptacle is included.
