:::tip
The ball joint is designed to be tight but will still rotate with enough force, allowing flexible positioning.

## Install the Board and Sensors

### What you need

* **Everything Presence Lite board**
* **mmWave sensor**

### Install the Lite board


1. Align the **Lite board** with the back of the case.

2. Carefully align the sensor’s **pins** with the socket.
   * Ensure the **5V pin** on the sensor aligns with the **5V pin** on the board.
   * Do not shift the sensor left or right.![](https://docs.everythingsmart.io/api/files.get?sig=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJrZXkiOiJ1cGxvYWRzLzEyODlhY2JjLWM2NWItNGNhNy05YjA0LWI3YjZmYzc5ZjFiNS9kNWQzMGM2NS0wZmUxLTQ2MzUtOTRjNy0zYjE4OGVmZDlhZjYvYXNzZW1ibHktaW5zZXJ0LW1td2F2ZS1waW4tbG9jYXRpb24uanBnIiwidHlwZSI6ImF0dGFjaG1lbnQiLCJpYXQiOjE3OTM2ODIwMDAsImV4cCI6MTc5Mzc2ODQwMH0.YflV4RHt08beKs389-Bw3lOGCbI9dT8yW0OtNcXF3AE " =3840x2560")

:::warning
**Important:** The mmWave sensor’s pins are delicate and can bend easily. Remove the sensor before moving or working on the board to avoid damage.

### Attach the stand


1. Hold the case steady and **press the stand onto the ball joint**.
   * Use your thumb against the back of the ball joint for support.
   * The stand may feel tight initially due to the 3D printing process but will loosen slightly after a few rotations.
