FIGURE 2-13 Schematic with screw terminals added.
Now that all the components have been added, we can rearrange them so as to be ready to connect
them up. To do this, we will need to change the orientation of some of the components. In particular,
all the resistors need to be vertical rather than horizontal, and the power connector needs to be
rotated through 180 degrees so that the connections face toward the rest of the components.
Rotating components, like everything else in EAGLE, requires you to switch to a particular mode.
Select the “Rotate” mode by clicking on the “Rotate” icon (see Figure 2-4). Click on each of the
resistors to rotate them through 90 degrees, and then click on the connector twice to rotate it a full 180
degrees (Figure 2-14).
