| + | The Arduino functionality was corrected from previous versions: |
| + | * Analog and digital reading now works correctly |
| + | * Auto detection of ttyUSBx port for FTDI device (Arduino board uses this for USB) |
| + | |
| + | It requires the Firmata protocol to be uploaded to the Arduino board. |
| + | Use the latest Firmata version (2.1 as of now) downloaded from the Firmata page (firmata.org) |
| + | The Firmata version included with the Arduino IDE has some inconsistencies. |
