Safety first 
BPS Leader setup guide:
- GitHub: https://github.com/lhr-solar/BPS-LeaderPCB/tree/master
- PCB: https://github.com/lhr-solar/BPS-LeaderPCB/blob/master/BPS-LeaderPCB.PNG
- Connect 12V and GND to J6
- Don't turn the power on until setup is complete
- A green LED next to the buck converter will indicate that 5V power is connected
- Connect Amperes to BPS-Leader
- J8 of Leader connects to Amperes
- J2 of Amperes connects to Leader
- Connect Leader J8 to Amperes J2
- J8 of Leader connects to Amperes
- Connect the Minions to Leader
- There are three minions but IsoSPI is daisy-chained so only one Minion needs to be connected to the Leader
- Connect J5 of the Minion to J7 of the Leader
- Connect nucleo (Flashing and debugging code on an MCU)
- J5 is the SWD connector
Battery Voltage tap setup guide
- Check the voltage of the voltage taps
- We want to ensure that the voltage taps are properly connected
- Measure the voltage between each connection through a multimeter (should be close to 3.5V)

Minion setup guide:
- Schematic: https://github.com/lhr-solar/BPS-MinionPCB/blob/master/BPS-MinionSCH.pdf
- PCB: https://github.com/lhr-solar/BPS-MinionPCB/blob/master/BPS-MinionPCB.PNG
- use the power switch on the Minion to turn off the Minion
- Find the GND of the Minion board (on J2)
- Plug the Voltage connectors into J1 and J2
- Ensure that you know which wire is GND (usually indicated by a different color)
- Connect the minions
- The minions are daisy-chained
- J5 is the In connector and J6 is the Out connector
- Connect the Out of one Minion to the In of the next minion
- The minions are daisy-chained
