Assignment 3 – LED Blink

In today’s assignment we examined the starter kit (UNO R3 project) from ELEGOO. It contains 54 elements . The controller board was the main point of interest for the assignment.
First of all, we installed the Arduino IDE 1.8.8 on windows. We obtained the installation package from http://www.arduino.cc website and extracted thefile.Installation completed with no issues.
We then explored the software to understand its functionality and also set the serial port .The board type was detected automatically.
We started with the blink example which required an LED. There is an LED on the board which we did not recognize at first. We connected an external LED using a 5K ohm resistor. We noticed that it synchronized. We tried multiplr variable delay function parameters and it worked perfectly. We saved the file.
