This is only required if you are building a potentiostat from scratch or if the firmware was erased from your potentiostat.
-
Download the latest firmware from https://github.com/juami/potentiostat_firmata. This can be done from a Git prompt or directly from the URL.
-
Download and install the Arduino IDE at https://www.arduino.cc/en/main/software.
-
In the Arduino IDE, open pytentiostat_firmata.ino and plug the potentiostat into a USB.
-
Verify the Arduino Uno was found at Tools -> Port: "COMX (Arduino Uno)". Disconnect any other Arduinos to prevent any mistakes.
-
Press the upload button and verify that no errors occured. The words "Done uploading" will appear at the bottom with a green background. If the color turns red, there was an error.
