Navigate to the APSP_blink_LEDs folder and select the APSP_blink_LEDs.ino file

Now, in Atmel Studio, click on File->Open->Arduino Project You will notice that the folder APSP_blink_LEDs folder contains just the APSP_blink_LEDs.ino file. Of course you can use the “standard” Blink example provided with the Arduino IDE installation.

Let’s start opening a very simple sketch: the APSP_blink_LEDs code available from the Proto Shield Plus sample sketches ( Click here to download the sample sketches). To start using your new environment, you can open an existing Arduino sketch (.ino file) or start a new blank project. You are now ready to start coding your Arduino with a much more versatile environment! You will notice the presence of the new vMicro menu and toolbar in Atmel Studio… Once restarted you will be asked to specify Arduino IDE version and its location (usually the location is the one shown by default C:Program Files (x86)Arduino) Just click on Restart Now button in order for the changes to take effect. You have to allow the installer to make changes to your device and then accept license agreement… Select the Online tab on the left, then scroll until you find Arduino IDE for Atmel Studio…then click on the Download button Installing Visual Micro plug-in for Atmel Studio

The installer will perform a system validation in order to check that the minimum requirements for Atmel Studio are met.Īllow various Software from various publishers and then you’re done! Just agree to license terms and conditions…(of course!) Once downloaded, start the installation.the whole process will take a quite a long time to finish… Let’s proceed downloading Atmel Studio from Once installation is complete, you can run the Arduino IDE from its desktop icon.

Just click on the setup icon and start the install processĪllow various Software from Arduino and other publishers One of the main advantages is the ability to set up and manage breakpoints and / or monitor variable values to easily debug your code!Įven if we are not going to use it I suggest to install the latest standard Arduino IDE available from The main reason is to be sure to have at least one properly working IDE on our PC. The difference lies in Visual Micro's user interface which provides an advanced and professional development environment. It is fully compatible with the Arduino development environment and uses the same libraries. Visual Micro is an extension for Atmel Studio that allows any Arduino project to be developed, compiled, and then uploaded to any Arduino board. The standard Arduino IDE ( ) ( Integrated Development Environment) is quite good: it comes for free, it is developed by the “Arduino” company and, of course, it is the first IDE software you will ever download to start writing code and uploading it to your Arduino board!Īnyway, it is well known that after some time, you will feel the need of some additional features in terms of IDE usability… Why use Visual Micro instead of the “standard” Arduino IDE?
