Now, let's get started with a software set up, hang onto your keyboard and mouse.
This part might get bumpy follow along closely as we configure and upload our first day, Iwai wi fi
connected software.
And this lesson will install the E.S.P eight two six six Balde package inside our Arduino software.
We will also install a device driver for the board communication chip and upload an Arduino sketch that
connects to your home wireless network.
The good news is that once you have completed the steps and this and this lesson, you won't have to
do them again.
You are using the same computer and the same ball, you don't have to reconfigure and reinstall any
of the software that we are going to install and the software or in this lesson.
So the first step will be installing the Arduino software.
As you already know, the hardware software is available for free on the Arduino, the Cissie website.
So the first step will be going to the Arduino, the Cissie go to the software section, click downloads.
And from here, choose your operating system, in our case, it's Windows operating system, we can
use the Windows installer, all the windows up, and I already installed the windows up.
Here it is.
Now, by default, the Arduino application support chips used an official Arduino boards, but not the
E.S.P board.
These boards can be programmed out of the box because the Arduino application already knows about each
one and its properties.
One cool thing about Arduino is that you can add support for other bolts and all you have to do is to
tell and we know where to discover their priorities.
The first step of that process is providing you are able to the additional boards manager.
Now.
You have to go to the edit, and from there you need to go the file menu and select preferences, you
will get to see this window.
As you can see here, we have additional boards manager.
You are alts and you have to based aspecific.
You are all in that window.
I will give it the resources of this lecture, but here it is.
Let me copy and paste that you are on.
This is the original E.S.P, you are all for this package.
Now, if the box was not blank where you opened the preferences window, you may have some other boards
already installed.
If that's the case, I that Xbox contact with the above, we are all using a comma to separate different
Yahel.
So you can add this one and add a comma and add another one.
But since we only have one, I will based it here after doing that.
Click OK to play to close that preferences window.
Now our original application knows where to find info about the sport in general.
So let's go to the tools.
And from there.
Go to the boards manager.
And here and the boss manager, you need to write E.S.P.
Now, as you can see here, we have E.S.P.
Eight two six six, what you need to do is simply click install.
It will take some time to download about 34 megabytes of data to your Arduino libraries folder, and
once done, it will show you a message indicating that everything is done.
Now, once it's done, as you can see, it says installed here, you can click close.
And if you want to the board manager, you can see that now we have E.S.P eight two, six, six and
E.S.P eight to eight five and other E.S.P balls.
Most of them are here now, what you need to do is simply start using them and I already mentioned that
the one that we have.
At hand is the E.S.P fair to the eight to six six million now?
In order to make sure that it's recognized when connecting the USB port, you need to install an additional
driver from the Sealab website.
I will give you links to this driver as well.
So you need to go and check your operating system.
And we have IndusInd Universal.
So we will use this software, click download VCP.
The download will start, you can simply click download, after that you can install.
The driver, depending on your operating system, that's it.
Now, we have installed the hardware software that E.S.P library for Arduino and the USB drive driver.
