WHAT WE’RE DOING:
.:Getting Started:.
.:(Blinking LED):.
LEDs (light emitting diodes) are used in all sorts of clever things
which is why we have included them in this kit. We will start off
with something very simple, turning one on and off, repeatedly,
producing a pleasant blinking effect. To get started, grab the parts
listed below, pin the layout sheet to your breadboard and then plug
everything in. Once the circuit is assembled you'll need to upload the program. To do this plug the
Arduino board into your USB port. Then select the proper port in Tools > Serial Port > (the
comm port of your Arduino). Next upload the program by going to File > Upload (ctrl+U).
Finally, bask in the glory and possibility that controlling lights offers.
