[Tutorial] How to use MRP01 with Arduino IDE in Mac OS X

Following illustrates the steps of using MRP01 with Arduino IDE in Mac OS X:

1. To use MRP01 with Arduino IDE, it is required to update MRP01 with AVRDUDE programming firmware. Following illustrates how to update programming firmware in Mac OS X:
1. Disconnect MRP01 from laptop or desktop
2. Download and install xcode from Apple website: https://developer.apple.com/xcode/ 
3. Install MacPorts following these instructions from this link: http://www.macports.org/install.php#pkg 
4. Once MacPorts is installed, in a Terminal window, type "sudo port install dfu-programmer" to install dfu programmer.
5. Download the MRP01_AVRDUDE_LUFA20XXXXXX.hex from this link: AVRCIRCUIT MS Skydrive

6. Link the last four pins(Pin3 – Pin6) of ISP output, as follows:

7. Connect MRP01 to laptop or desktop
8. In Terminal window, go to the directory where the hex file downloaded (e.g. if the hex file is downloaded to [Downloads], type "cd downloads") 
9. Erase the MRP01 by typing "sudo dfu-programmer at90usb162 erase"
10. Upload the AVRDUDE hex file into MRP01 by typing "sudo dfu-programmer at90usb162 flash MRP01_AVRDUDE_20XXXXXX.hex.txt"
11. Reset the MRP01 by typing "sudo dfu-programmer at90usb162 reset"

12. If it is successfully to upload, the following message will be displayed:

13. Disconnect MRP01 from laptop or desktop.

     

2. To use MRP01 with Arduino IDE in Mac OS X:
1. Download Arduino IDE for Mac OS X from this link: Arduino software
2. Execute this Arduino IDE by double clicking the downloaded Arduino file.
3. Connect MRP01 to ICSP pin on Arduino development board
4. Connect MRP01 to laptop or desktop
5. Open Arduino script file or select an existing example (e.g. select LED blinking example by clicking [File] > [Example] > [01.Basics] > [Blink])
6. Select target board, e.g. selecting Arduino UNO by clicking [Tools] > [Board] > [Arduino Uno].
7. Select programmer by clicking [Tools] > [Programmer] > [AVRISP mkII].

8. Write this script file into Arduino development board by holding [Shift] keyboard button and clicking  button at Arduino IDE toolbar. The message “Done uploading” will be displayed after the script file is uploaded:
