* Firstly you will need to connect power to your FiPy. You will need to supply `3.5v`-`5.5v` to the `Vin` pin. **Note:** Do _not_ feed `3.3v` directly to the `3.3v` supply pin, this will damage the regulator.
|
||||
* The connect the `RX` and `TX` of your USB UART to the `TX` and `RX` of the FiPy respectively. **Note:** Please ensure you have the signal level of the UART adapter set to `3.3v` before connecting it.
|
||||
* In order to put the FiPy into bootloader mode to update the device firmware you will need to connect `P2` to `GND`. We recommend you connect a button between the two to make this simpler.

* If you are using a pycase, you will next need to put the SMA connector through the antenna hole, ensuring you align the flat edge correctly, and screw down the connector using the provided nut.

### LTE Cat-M1/NB-IoT
|
||||
|
||||
If you intend on using the LTE CAT-M1 or NB-IoT connectivity of the FiPy you **must** connect a LTE CAT-M1/NB-IoT antenna to your FiPy before trying to use LTE Cat-M1 or NB-IoT otherwise you risk damaging the device.
|
||||
|
||||
* You will need to connect the antenna to the FiPy using the U.FL connector on the under side of the FiPy.

|

### WiFi/Bluetooth \(optional\)
|
||||
|
||||
All Pycom modules, including the FiPy, come with a on-board WiFi antenna as well as a U.FL connector for an external antenna. The external antenna is optional and only required if you need better performance or are mounting the FiPy in such a way that the WiFi signal is blocked. Switching between the antennas is done via software, instructions for this can be found [here.](https://docs.pycom.io/firmwareapi/pycom/network/wlan.html)

### SIM card {#sim-card}
|
||||
|
||||
If you intend on using the LTE CAT-M1 or NB-IoT connectivity of the FiPy you will need to insert a SIM card into your FiPy. It should be noted that the FiPy does not support regular LTE connectivity and you may require a special SIM. It is best to contact your local cellular providers for more information on acquiring a LTE CAT-M1/NB-IoT enabled nano SIM.
