Writing the image to the SD card

Download the latest version of balenaEtcher and install it.

Connect an SD card reader with the micro SD card inside.

Open balenaEtcher and select from your hard drive the previously downloaded img file file you wish to write to the SD card.

Select the SD card you wish to write your image to.

Review your selections and click 'Flash!' to begin writing data to the SD card.

Inserting the SD card

Once flashing is over, you can unmount the SD card from the computer (usually done by right clicking on the card icon in the taskbar).

Insert now the card in the Raspberry installed in your PlanktonScope.

Start playing!
