4. Manual Installation of Core Spartan Resources
The following is a guide to install the resources necessary to control a Core Spartan
Controller on any platform that supports Arduino. There are two main steps involved in
installation of Core Spartan Resources: installation of library and examples via a .zip file and
installation of the board file via the Arduino Board Manager.
If you encounter issues with any step of the installation process, please attempt closing and
reopening the Arduino program or restarting your computer as these methods may fix any
issues. If your problems persist, please contact Modern Robotic Support at
