+No special preparation is required - preparing the joypad is explained in the project steps below. You do not have to use the latest lab as a base for this one, you can use the base of lab2 or any other **//except lab1//** if you feel like the project has become to bloated.
 **NOTE:** To get the joypads to start sending data, you may have to press a **Mode** button in the center of the device. This is true for the joypads handed out in the lab class!
