Arduino UNO : Getting Started ( On Line IDE )

Development Tools Cloud IoT
1

Hello,

I have recencently aquired an Arduino UNO board, I'd sincerely appreciate some help :

  • Is it possible to change the language of the on-line IDE ?
  • When I run the "Getting Started" ( first screen on-line IDE ) my board is not detected and the procedure fails ( I run autodetect board). Does it have something to do that my board is Arduino UNO ?

Thanks for your feedback.

Best regards

Hi @ballestajuan.

ballestajuan:

I'm not sure. Maybe someone else here will have an answer for that.

I notice I can use the Google Chrome browser's translation feature on it, but that translates the code too, which is definitely not what you want!

That "Getting Started" page is really only useful if you're using the IoT features of Arduino Create, which your Uno isn't capable of. This is why it's not detected.

However, the Arduino Web Editor component of Arduino Create will work perfectly with your Arduino Uno. You should ignore the "Getting Started" page and go directly to the Arduino Web Editor:

You may still need to install the Arduino Create plugin before you can upload to your Uno (you can write and compile sketches without the plugin), but the Arduino Web Editor page will guide you to the plugin installation process.
