HttpGetPolling

This example (located in Adafruit_WICED_Arduino/examples/HTTP) will connect to an HTTP server and read the

specified page using 'polling' (as opposed to using callbacks).

Setup

Set your AP details using the WLAN_SSID and WLAN_PASS flags, setting them to the values used by you own access

point:

Set the domain name or the IP address, the page and the port that you wish the resolve using the following variables:

Compile and Flash

You can then compile and flash your sketch to the WICED Feather using the 'Download' arrow icon at the top of the

IDE:

You should see the USB DFU progress as the update advances, and there will be a 'Done Uploading' message in the

top left of the status bar when you are done:

Testing the Sketch

Wait a few seconds for the USB CDC serial interface to enumerate, and then open the Serial Monitor using either the

Serial Monitor icon in the upper-right of the IDE or via Tools > Serial Monitor:

This will cause the WICED Feather to attempt to connect to the access point, and then it will attempt to retrieve the

specified web page:

#define WLAN_SSID "YOUR SSID HERE"

#define WLAN_PASS "YOUR SSID KEY HERE"

#define SERVER "www.adafruit.com" // The HTTP server to connect to

#define PAGE "/testwifi/index.html" // The HTTP resource to request

#define PORT 80 // The TCP port to use
