4.1 ስብሰባ

The T-Embed comes as a shell kit, requiring assembly of the circuit board within the provided enclosure. Carefully align the circuit board with the mounting points inside the shell. Ensure all connectors and the display are properly seated before securing the enclosure. Refer to the official GitHub repository for detailed assembly instructions and shell fileአስፈላጊ ከሆነ።

4.2 የመጀመሪያ ኃይል-አፕ

The T-Embed supports dual power supply options:

• የዩኤስቢ ዓይነት-C፡ Connect a standard USB Type-C cable to the port on the device and to a 5V power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter).
• ሊ-ፖ ባትሪ፡ Connect a compatible Li-Po battery to the JST 1.25mm connector. Ensure correct polarity. The device includes battery voltage detection on IO04.

Upon successful power-up, the 1.9-inch LCD display should illuminate, and the device will begin its boot sequence.

4.3 Software Setup and Programming Environment

To develop applications for the T-Embed, you will need to set up a programming environment. The device supports both Arduino-IDE and ESP-IDF.

1. Install Arduino IDE or ESP-IDF: Download and install your preferred development environment.
2. Install ESP32-S3 Board Support: Follow the instructions for adding ESP32-S3 board support to your chosen IDE.
3. Obtain T-Embed Libraries and Exampያነሰ፡ Access the official LILYGO T-Embed GitHub repository for necessary libraries, example code, and detailed programming guides.
