Setup Arduino IDE in Atmel Studio

The following page guides you through the first steps needed to set up your development environment.At the end of these steps, you will be ready to write, compile, debug, and upload your Arduino sketches

Step 1: Setup the Location of the Arduino IDE

If it is the first time after you have installed Arduino for Visual Micro, the Configuration Manager will pop up wherever you can configure your system. Visual Micro must know the version and installation path of the Arduino software that you have installed previously, see the Getting Started page, step 1. This also applies to similar IDEs like mpIDE or Energia.

Step 2: Select the IDE Version You Would Like to Use With Your Arduino Project

If you work with different boards that required different IDEs, or if you have multiple versions of the Arduino IDE installed, then repeat the steps above for each IDE.

You can then switch between configurations with this toolbar control

Step 3: Modifying Existing Setup

Modifying Existing Configurations

You can open the configuration manager at any time later by clicking on "Configuration Manager" in the Visual Micro tool bar.
