  • If you don't have a Microduino extension, please adopt jumpers when connecting Microduino-OLED.

Step 2: Download example program. Start Arduino IDE, open Microduino test program and choose the board Microduino-Core+ (Atmega644P@16M,5V) and download;

Step 3: Open SMARTCINFIG application program. Connect IOS device to your router, open TI WIFI SMARTCINFIG and fill the router password;

Step 4: Connect IOS and Microduino Watch Microduino-OLED until it appears "Waiting for a SmartConfig connection (~60s) ..." and press "Start" of TI WIFI SMARTCINFIG and then wait for result.
