installing raspBian
Now you will need an empty formatted SD card on which to install Raspbian using the NOOBS installer.
Some shops sell SD cards that already have NOOBS preinstalled.
More information about NOOBS and the installation process can be found on the Raspberry Pi website.
Follow these installation instructions. Make sure to use the latest version of NOOBS available on their website.

IMPORTANT: After the installation process, during your fi rst boot, you will boot into the Raspbian confi guration menu.
Here, you need to select Advanced Options, and enable SPI.
The VM205 uses SPI to communicate with the Raspberry Pi. After enabling SPI, you will be asked to reboot.
If you did not fi nd an option to enable SPI under Advanced options, then you have an older version of NOOBS (< 1.4.0).
