This page discripes how to install the Arduino IDE, add our radino library and install an example on a radino and a radino32.

Install Arduino IDE

• Now start Arduino IDE. If installed properly, a windows like this should open:

Install radino library

• Download the lastes radino library for Downloadpage for radino library
• Unzip the downloaded file, after it you now have two folders (hardware and libraries) and a file (README.txt):

• Now copy both folders into your main Arduino-Sketch folder.
  This folder was specially defined during installation or has one of the following default paths (english and german):

My Documents\Arduino
C:\Documents and Settings\yourUserName\My Documents\Arduino
C:\Users\yourUserName\Documents\Arduino

Eigene Dateien\Arduino

Install driver

on radino

• When first using radino, a driver installation is required.
  If asked for the driver, just point the driver installer tool to the radino driver folder:

• Your computer now assigns a serial port.You can see a new com port in windows device manager:

on radino32

• After entering the Bootloader windows will detect the new device.
• Use the zadig driver installation tool under "%ARDUINO_APPDATA_FOLDER%/hardware/ICT_Boards/stm32l1/driver/win" to install drivers for the STM32 Bootloader.
• Make sure within the installation tool "libusbK (v3.0.7.0)" is selected.

install virtual com port

• st offers drivers for the stm32s virtual com port on their website http://www.st.com. Find them by searching for virtual com port driver
• Direct link to the drivers page: http://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/tools/PF257938

wrong driver with Windows 7

• Windows 7 usually installs the wrong driver for radino32 automatically - this guide shows how to remove the wrong driver and install the right one.

Uninstall wrong driver

• Open the device manager
• Within section USB-Controller look for STM Device in DFU Mode
  • If you formerly used another device from ST and installed a driver package, the device STM32_BOOTLOADER within another section might be the one to look for.
• Right-click on that entry and choose Uninstall

• In the upcoming window check the box and click OK

• Now disconnect the radino32 from your PC (remove the USB connection)

Reconnect radino 32 carefully

• reconnect your radino32 via USB to your PC - Windows 7 will now attempt to re-install the wrong driver

• click on the pop-up window that appears on the bottom right (don't close it)

• Click on the link to cancel driver-installation

• and confirm

• Windows driver installation was cancelled

Install new driver

• Use the zadig driver installation tool under "%ARDUINO_APPDATA_FOLDER%/hardware/ICT_Boards/stm32l1/driver/win" to install drivers for the STM32 Bootloader.
• Make sure within the installation tool "libusbK (v3.0.7.0)" is selected.
• Now run zadig driver installation to install radino32 driver

• The installer recognizes the STM32 BOOTLOADER - now select libusbK and run Install Driver

• The device-manager now shows your radino32 as STM32 BOOTLOADER within section libusbK USB Devices

• The radino32 driver is now installed successfully on Windows 7
