INTRODUCTION
The Arduino Integrated Development Environment TAPIT

- Contains:
• A text editor for writing code
• A message area, a text console,
• A toolbar with buttons for common
functions and a series of menus.
• It connects to the Arduino and
Genuino hardware to upload
programs and communicate with
them.

- Arduino programs can be divided in three main parts: TAPIT

structure, values (variables and constants), and functions.

Structure:
- setup, loop
- if, if…else, for, switch case…

Values:
- Constants: HIGHT|LOW…
- Data types: void, char…

Functions:
- Digital I/O
- Analog I/O
- …..

 TAPIT
Digital I/O
pinMode(pin, mode)

Configures the specified pin to behave either

as an input or an output

 pin: the number of the pin whose mode you wish to

set
 mode: INPUT, OUTPUT, or INPUT_PULLUP

11
 TAPIT
Digital I/O
digitalWrite(pin, value)
- Write a HIGH or a LOW value to a digital pin.
- If the pin has been configured as an OUTPUT
with pinMode().
- Its voltage will be set to the corresponding value:
5V (or 3.3V on 3.3V boards) for HIGH,
0V (ground) for LOW.

 pin: the pin number

 value: HIGH or LOW

12
 TAPIT
Digital I/O
digitalRead(pin)
 Reads the value from a specified digital pin,
either HIGH or LOW.
 pin: the number of the digital pin you want to
read (int)
 Returns: HIGH or LOW

13
 TAPIT
Analog I/O (10BITADC)

analogReference(type)
Configures the reference voltage used
for analog input (i.e. the value used as
the top of the input range).
The options are:

- DEFAULT: the default analog

reference of 5 volts (on 5V Arduino
boards) or 3.3 volts (on 3.3V Arduino
boards)
- INTERNAL, INTERNAL1V1,
- INTERNAL2V56, or EXTERNAL

14
 TAPIT
Analog I/O (10BITADC)
analogRead(pin)
 Reads the value from the specified analog pin.
 Returns int (0 to 1023)

analogWrite(pin, value)
 pin: the pin to write to.
 value: the duty cycle: between 0
(always off) and 255 (always on).

15
 TAPIT
Communication
Serial.begin(speed)
Sets the data rate in bits per second (baud) for
serial data transmission.

Serial.print(val)
Prints data to the serial port as human-
readable ASCII text
Serial.available() Serial.read()

16
NODEMCU WIFI MODE

17
NodeMCU can run in one of four WiFi
modes:
• Station mode (STA), where the NodeMCU device
joins an existing network
• Access point (AP) mode, where it creates its own
network that others can join
• Station + AP mode, where it both creates its own
network while at the same time being joined to
another existing network
• WiFi off
