 User Guide for Arduino IDE Software
Steps to Installation of Arduino IDE software
Download Link: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
1. Double Click on arduino.exe file.
2. Then click on “I Agree”.

3. Without changing anything click on “Next >”.

4. Select the destination folder & click on “Install”.

5. After installation completed click on “Close”.

-----------------------------------------------------------*************----------------------------------------------------------
 Steps to use of Arduino IDE software
1. Double Click on “Arduino” icon.
2. The Arduino IDE will be opened with previously open project.

3. For new project go to File -> New.

4. New Project is open.

5. It contains two main sections. setup() & loop().
 The initialization code
or the code that to be
run once is placed here

The code that

to be executed
continuously is
placed here.

This is output window where

different informative messages (like
verification & uploading success /
error messages) are displayed.

6. After writing your program save it, go to File -> Save.

7. Select the folder where you want to save your file (if don’t want to save in default Arduino folder),
then give the appropriate name to the file and click on “save”.
8. Then to compile the written program, select Sketch -> Verify / Compile option. Or click on “Verify”
button.

9. After compilation is done, output window display message “DoneCompiling” (if there are no errors
in a program). Also displays information about how much program & data memory is used by the
program.

10. Then select the desired Arduino board, go to Tools -> Board: -> Arduino / Genuino Uno (if Uno is
used) or select Arduino Nano (if nano is used).
11. For Arduino Nano, there is option for selection of Processor. This has three choices user can select
one as per the processor & Bootloader used in the available Nano board.

12. After selecting the board, select the COM port where selected board is connected. Go to the Tools -
> Port.
13. Once board & COM port is selected, upload the program on to the connected board. Go to Sketch -
> Upload. (Arduino has on board programmer, hence no need of external programmer.)
14. Perform necessary connections to the Arduino and observed the output. In order to execute program
again from start press Reset button on the Arduino board.
15. If you want to use serial monitor, go to Tools -> Serial Monitor. (Serial monitor displays the data
coming from serial port of the Arduino).

16. If library for any component (sensor / shield) is not available in the Arduino IDE, it can be added
externally. Go to Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries… (Requires internet connection)

17. The new window will open, where you can search the library you want. E.g. type the name keypad
for keypad library, as follows:

18. Select the desired Keypad library, select version and click on install.
19. If the desired library is not found here, then there is another option to add library. Search the
library in the GitHub. E.g. search for DHT11 sensor library.

20. In the GitHub website select “Download ZIP” option.

21. Then go to Arduino IDE, select Sketch -> Include Library -> Add .ZIP Library…
22. Select the downloaded ZIP file and click on “Open”.

23. You can go through the in-build examples available in the Arduino IDE and try them on actual
Arduino board as per your interest.

we will observe the output on serial monitor of Arduino IDE).
 Make necessary connections to connect o/p pin from DHT11 section to D3 digital pin in the
Arduino section.

 Steps to use Bluetooth Terminal HC05 Mobile app.
1. Go to Play Store of your smart phone and install the “Bluetooth Terminal HC05” app.
2. Open “Bluetooth Terminal HC05” app. in your smart phone. Click on SCAN.

3. App scan new devices and when found, ask for password in order to pair with that new device.
Password for all HC05 devices is same i.e. “1234”. Enter the password and press “OK”.

4. Then the HC05 device showed under the heading of Paired Devices.
5. Click on the device to open this device for further communication. Then either you can enter
ASCII command and click on “Send ASCII”, or you can configure given buttons in order to
send commands.

Theory:
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile
devices over short distances using short-wavelength UHF radio waves in the industrial, scientific and
medical radio bands, from 2.402 GHz to 2.480 GHz, and building personal area networks (PANs). It
was originally conceived as a wireless alternative to RS-232 data cables. The IEEE standardized
Bluetooth as IEEE 802.15.1. Bluetooth is a one of the great example for wireless connectivity. It is used
in many fields. Bluetooth consumes very small amount of energy. Here we are going to interface a
Bluetooth Module (HC-05) with Arduino. HC-05 is a Bluetooth module which can communicate in two
ways. Which means, It is full-duplex. We can use it with most micro controllers. Because it operates on
Serial Port Protocol (SSP). The module communicates with the help of USART (Universal
Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) at the baud rate of 9600, and it also supports other
baud rate. So we can interface this module with any microcontroller which supports USART. The HC-
05 can operate in two modes. One is Data mode and other is AT command mode. When the enable pin
is "LOW" the HC-05 is in Data Mode. If that pin set as "HIGH" the module is in AT command mode.
Here we operate this module in Data Mode.
Technical Specifications -
 Operating Voltage: 4V to 6V (Typically +5V)
 Operating Current: 30mA
 Range: <100m
 Works with Serial communication (USART) and TTL compatible.
 Can be easily interfaced with Laptop or Mobile phones with Bluetooth.
Procedure:
 Connect DC power adaptor to the MGTechSolution Arduino Target board.
 Start Arduino IDE and follow the steps mention in the “Steps to use of Arduino IDE software”.
 Compile the written program, if there are no errors connect the PC with Arduino by using USB
cable.
 Upload the program in to Arduino board (make necessary connection only after program is
uploaded successfully).
 Pair Bluetooth Module HC05 with the smartphone. Password for pairing is “1234”. Make
necessary connections as shown in the above circuit diagram.
 Enter the commands in to any Bluetooth Mobile app. to make LED on / off, and observe the
output.

Theory:
A GSM modem or GSM module is a hardware device that uses GSM mobile telephone
technology to provide a data link to a remote network. From the view of the mobile phone network, they
are essentially identical to an ordinary mobile phone, including the need for a SIM to identify themselves
to the network. GSM modems typically provide TTL-level serial interfaces to their host. [wikipedia]

SIM800 is a complete Quad-band GSM/GPRS solution in a SMT type which can be embedded
in the customer applications. SIM800 support Quad-band 850/900/1800/1900MHz, it can transmit
Voice, SMS and data information with low power consumption.

Procedure:
 Connect DC power adaptor to the MGTechSolution Arduino Target board.
 Start Arduino IDE and follow the steps mention in the “Steps to use of Arduino IDE software”.
 Compile the written program, if there are no errors connect the PC with Arduino by using USB
cable.
 Upload the program in to Arduino board (make necessary connection only after program is
uploaded successfully).
  Make necessary connections as shown in the above circuit diagram.
 Observe the output.
Hint:
 Network LED blinking every 3 seconds means network is connected.
 Network LED blinking every second means that network is still being searched.
