Download Download the latest Windows IDE: https://www.microduino.cc/download Installation Double click on the setup file Arduino IDE 1.X.X for Microduino.exe. Click [Next]. Make sure Arduino IDE, USBTTL driver, and Core USB driver are all checked. Click [Next]. Click [Browse...] if you would like to choose a different installation destination. Then click [Next] and [Install]. After the Arduino IDE has been installed, a window for driver installation will appear. Click [Extract] and follow the instructions. Click [Finish] to complete the installation. After installation, there will be a shortcut to the Arduino IDE on your desktop. Confirm Drivers Installed Successfully Confirm that the drivers are installed successfully based on your hardware. USBTTL Connect Microduino-USBTTL to your computer. Verify that there are available Port options under Tools. CoreUSB Connect Microduino-CoreUSB or mCookie-CoreUSB to your computer. Verify that there are available Port options under Tools. mBattery Connect mCookie-Battery to your computer. IMPORTANT: Ensure that mBattery is "ON" by pressing and holding the button. A red LED should be on, which indicates that power is being supplied to the modules. Verify that there are available Port options under Tools. Selecting Board Type and Processor Selecting the Board Type and Processor is required to compile the correct code for the core module. Configuring the software is done under Tools > Board and Tools > Processor. Below is the table which lists all the core modules with corresponding Board and Processor. The table also lists kits that contain specific core modules. Example usage would be for the Core module in Itty Bitty City. Board is Microduino/mCookie-Core (328p) and Processor is Atmega328P@16M,5V.
