Arduino Starting Tutorial:

1. go to the online guide: http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/Windows

2. follow the instructions to download, set up, and run the blinking LED program.

3. open the Arduino “First Sketch” tutorial page: http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Sketch

4. read about the sketch, describe comments, variables, input and output pins, the setup() and loop() functions, etc…

5. do the two exercises at the end:

a) Change the code so that the LED is on for 100 milliseconds and off for 1000.

b) Change the code so that the LED turns on when the sketch starts and stays on.

6. other tutorials are here: http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Foundations for further reading

Final Project Equipment Information:

2012: Labview Library for USB 6009 Board

For those of you using the student version of Labview on your own computers, it does not come with the libraries you need to talk to the USB 6009 DAQ board. If you want to program on your own machines you will need to download it. It is called DAQmx and you can find it here: http://search.ni.com/ nisearch/app/main/p/bot/no/ap/ tech/lang/en/pg/1/sn/catnav: du,n8:3478.41,ssnav:sup/.

you will need to make an account with NI to download it.
