Installing the Arduino Environment

201_1

 

The Arduino Environment is the collection of software used to compile, and load your projects onto your Arduino.

If you haven’t already installed the Arduino Environment, here’s how to do it on the Microsoft Windows operating system.

Step I

Download the latest Arduino Environment Windows Installer here: http://arduino.cc/en/main/software

Step II

Connect your Arduino board to your PC.

Step III

Test your Arduino Environment by attempting to upload a sketch.

  1. Open the Arduino Environment found in your program files
  2. Load up the blinking LED example sketch; in the File menu go to: File » Examples » 01.Basics » Blink
  3. Select your board; in the File menu go to: Tools » Boards » Arduino Uno
  4. Select the virtual COM port your Arduino has been assigned; in the File menu go to: Tools » Serial Port » COM X
  5. Upload the sketch by clicking the upload button

201_2

 

6. Verify that the LED is blinking on your UNO board.

If you’re unable to get the LED to blink look for further help online. Check the last page of this book for OSEPP support contact information. We’re always happy to help in any way we can!
