+Once you have the FED3 electronics it's time to update and modify the code!  To do so, follow these steps (also available with pictures [here](https://hackaday.io/project/106885/instructions)):
+
+1. Install the [Arduino IDE](arduino.cc).  Install the latest version.
+2. Read about the [Adafruit M0 Adalogger](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-feather-m0-adalogger/) microcontroller that is inside FED3.  TL/DR: You need to perform a [few updates](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-feather-m0-adalogger/setup) to the Arduino IDE to be able to communicate with this board. 
+2b. IMPORTANT: There is an incompatibility between the FED code and Adafruit SAMD board packages >1.5.5.  We don't know why, but while we try to figure it out, just install version 1.5.5 of the Adafruit SAM Board package.
+3. Install the relevant libraries. The  simplest will be to download the prepared zip file (FED3libraries.zip above).  Extract these libraries to your Arduino libraries director, for most people this will be: /Documents/Arduino/libraries
+4. Set the real time clock (RTC) on the FED3.  Open the FED3_SetClock sketch above in the Arduino IDE and flash this code to the M0.  You should see a message on the screen with the correct local time, indicating that the RTC was set correctly. 
+5. Finall, flash the latest FED3 code above. You should now be able to use FED3!
