4. Installing Arduino
Download Arduino software;
- Extract the entire directory to C:\Programs (note, not "C:\Program Files"). if you are reinstalling Arduino software, remove the entire arduino directory first.
- Create a shortcut on your desktop to "Arduino.exe" for easy access.
Install necessary Arduino drivers. Follow the instructions in page 23, Chapter 3 of Getting Started With Arduino
If you are installing Arduino on Windows 8, the link below explains shortly how to install drivers for arduino on Windows 8. http://mytechblog.com/2013/03/install-arduino-drivers-on-windows-8/. (Thanks to Wouter van der Wal for pointing this out)
5. If you have questions or if you need help
- The assigner will announce a help hour during his lecture.
- The assigner will be available during this hour only if one or more of you make an appointment
