Step 4Programming the micro


After all of the parts have been mounted, load the code into the micro.

I use a FTDI USB-TTL cable for all of my Arduino programming work.  If you don't have a cable, you can use your Arduinoboard.  Simply unplug the micro from your board, plug in the ATMega328.  Program it as per normal, and then move the programmed chip into the sprinkler controller.

Easy!
