Quick Start Guide

The easiest way to get started with the senseBox is to generate code using Blockly and copy it to the board:

Go to: https://blockly.sensebox.de/ardublockly/?lang=en&board=sensebox-mcu
Using Drag & Drop you can arrange your programm code
Click on the red symbol to compile the sketch.
Connect the senseBox to the device with a Mikro USB cabel and tap the red button on the senseBox MCU twice.
Copy the sketch to the senseBox just like you would to an USB stick.

Congratulations! You mastered the basics of Blockly and senseBox, if you want to know more take a look here:

Working with the Arduino IDE:

To test you can for example copy the code generated by Blockly before:

void setup() { pinMode(7, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(7,HIGH); } void loop() { }
Copy the code to the board using the arrow button.
