Adding rear female USB-C to MSR-2

You'll seat the Female Rear USB-C addon on the mezzanine connector on the back of your sensor, then fit the new back that came with it.

1. Unplug your MSR-2 from power and remove the back

4. Align the new back for your MSR-2 that came with the Female USB-C addon. It's possible you might have a flat back version and you can print that yourself too!
