Setup

The Arduino integrated development environment (IDE) is run using the icon on Your desktop.

First You have to perform the basic settings: the type of Your board and serial port to which is it connected.

Go to the menu and select Tools -> Board -> Arduino Diecimila, Duemilanove or Nano w/ Atmega168. This is the type of the board we will use.

Then, again from the main menu select Tools -> Ports -> COMx where x is a number of Your serial port to which is the board connected. This port is used for communication, sending and receiving messages and also for program download using special firmware bootloader. We use the USB/Serial converter, so it is necessary to know, which number is given by the operating system Windows

You are ready for Your first programm!
