Your Dottie Board comes in one of two versions: legs or framed. Follow the section that matches yours, then move on to Getting Started to connect it to WiFi.

Legs version

  1. Take the legs out of the packet along with the USB-C cable and the USB-C power adapter, then set them aside.
  2. Carefully remove the Dottie Board from the wrapped portion of the box. The board is delicate, so handle it with care.
  3. Place the board and its cardboard protective cover on a flat surface.
  4. Screw the legs into the board using your fingers. If they do not tighten easily, use an Allen key to secure them.
Note: It is important to attach the legs correctly. Refer to the image below for the correct orientation.

Powering on

  1. Plug the USB-C cable into the board as shown in the image above.
  2. Remove the cardboard protective cover by peeling off the sticky strips.
  3. Once it is free, pick up the display and stand it on its legs.
Warning: The screen is delicate. Do not press on it or put pressure on it when handling.

Framed version

  1. Remove the board from the packaging.
  2. The USB-C cable is already attached. Take the USB-C power adapter from the padded envelope and plug it into a power source.
