11 A. Getting started 1. If you have a case, start by installing the Raspberry pi inside the case. 2. Insert a pre-programmed MicroSD card into the MicroSD card slot on the bottom side of the Raspberry Pi. 3. Connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the USB ports. 4. Connect a HDMI monitor or TV to the Raspberry Pi using a HDMI cable. Ensure your monitor or TV is turned on and that you have selected the correct input. 5. Once all connections have been made, it is now time to connect the MicroUSB Power Supply to the board. When the power is connected, the Raspberry Pi will start to boot. 10

WiFi connections can be made via the network icon at the right-hand end of the menu bar. left-clicking this icon will bring up a list of available WiFi networks. 2. If no networks are found, it will show the message "No APs found - scanning...": just wait a few seconds without closing the menu, and it should find your network. 3. The icons on the right show whether a network is secured or not, and its signal strength. Click the network that you want to connect to. If it's secured, a dialogue box will appear prompting you to enter the network key. 4. Enter the key and press OK, then wait a couple of seconds. The network icon will flash briefly to show that a connection is being made. Once it's ready, the icon stops flashing and shows the signal strength. 16
