Hello folks,
Can someone provide me with a short instruction on how to do this? I have an Arduino Uno with a SIM800L v2, and I want to add it to Arduino Cloud IoT. Could someone guide me on how to do it? Of course, is it possible at all?
Hi @kactuz_1.
If by "Arduino Uno" you mean the UNO R3, I don't think it will be possible to use as an Arduino Cloud IoT Device.
The reason is that the libraries that handle the network communication between the Device and Arduino Cloud use a lot of memory and the ATmega328P microcontroller on the UNO R3 has very limited amounts of memory relative to the more resource rich microcontrollers on the boards that are officially supported for use as Arduino Cloud IoT Devices. This means that even the most simple Arduino Cloud IoT Thing sketch would not fit in the UNO R3's memory.
Of course the UNO R3 is an excellent board for other applications. With a bit of care, the memory is sufficient even for very complex non-IoT projects. So definitely keep the UNO R3 in mind for other projects, but it just isn't the right choice for this particular project.
