The pilight Arduino Nano software allows any computer with an USB port to work with pilight.
- Compile the firmware:
avr-gcc -Os -Wall -DF_CPU=16000000UL -mmcu=atmega328p -c -o pilight_usb_nano.o pilight_usb_nano.c -lm -I.
avr-gcc -mmcu=atmega328p pilight_usb_nano.o -o pilight_usb_nano
avr-objcopy -O ihex -R .eeprom pilight_usb_nano pilight_usb_nano.hex
- Flash the firmware on the Arduino Nano:
avrdude -b 57600 -p atmega328p -c arduino -P COM5 -U flash:w:pilight_usb_nano.hex - Connect the receiver data pin to D2 and the sender to D5.
- Connect the Arduino Nano to your computer.
- Check what COM port the Arduino Nano is using.
- Configure pilight to interface with the Arduino Nano (see below).
- Start pilight normally and it should work OOTB.
pilight USB nano hardware configuration:
Linux example:
"hardware": {
"433nano": {
"comport": "/dev/ttyUSB0"
}
}
Windows Example:
"hardware": {
"433nano": {
"comport": "COM5"
}
}
