Intel® Edison For Arduino
The Intel® Edison compute module is designed for expert makers, entrepreneurs, and some industrial IoT applications, it provides ease-of-development for a range of prototyping projects or commercial ventures when performance matters. With an expansion board interfaces with a wide range of Arduino shields, Intel® Edison for Arduino allows quick and easy prototyping with open source hardware and a software development environment.
Features
A combination of the power Intel® Edison and rich featured Grove System
Fast prototyping for IoT projects
Support development with Arduino* and C/C++, followed by Node.JS, Python, RTOS, and Visual Programming support in the near future
It includes a device-to-device and device-to-cloud connectivity framework to enable cross-device communication and a cloud-based, multi-tenant, time-series analytics service.
Has an SD card connector, micro USB or standard sized USB host Type-A connector(via mechanical switch), Micro USB device, 6 analog inputs, and 20 ditial input/output pins, 1x UART, 1x I2C, and 1x ICSP 6-pin header (SPI) Power jack with 7V-15V DC input.

Getting Started with the Intel® Edison Board
Before we work on any Grove modules, let's firstly get started with Intel® Edison Board, you can follow the detailed instructions on the official site of Intel® Edison to:
Step 1: Assemble Your Board
Install the compute module, attach the legs, and plug in your cables.
Step 2: Choose Your Operating System
| **Windows** | The Windows 64-bit installer will install your drivers, update your firmware, and let you install your development environment (IDE) | [Download 64-bit version](https://downloadmirror.intel.com/25384/eng/w_iot_2015.0.031.exe) |
| **OS X** | The Mac* OS X* installer will update your firmware, and let you install your development environment (IDE) | [Download](https://downloadmirror.intel.com/25384/eng/m_iot_dev_kit_2015.0.026.tar.gz) |
| **Linux** | The Linux* installer will update your firmware, and let you install your development environment (IDE) | [Download](https://downloadmirror.intel.com/25384/eng/l_iot_dev_kit_2015.0.019.tar.gz) |
If you are have a windows 32-bit system or having errors with the installer, Intel also provide manual process to install the drivers or update your firmware:
| **Windows** | [Try Manual Process](https://software.intel.com/en-us/get-started-edison-windows-32-step2) |
| **OS X** | [Try Manual Process](https://software.intel.com/en-us/installing-firmware-with-flash-tool-mac) |
| **Linux** | [Try Manual Process](https://software.intel.com/en-us/flashing-firmware-on-your-intel-edison-board-linux) |
Step 3: Set Up a Serial Terminal
You'll need a serial terminal connection to your board for flashing the firmware
Step 4: Connect Your Board to the Internet
How can you build an IoT device without the "I"? Let's connect your board to the WiFi network.
Step 5: Try It Out with Arduino IDE
As we've already installed the development environment including Arduino IDE in Step 2 (if not, you can download the latest Arduino IDE here. ) now as your very first practice, let's try to blink an LED on Intel Edison Board with Ardunio IDE.
Getting Started with the Grove System
Connect the Grove - Base Shield to Intel Edison for Arduino via the pin connectors.
Using 26AWG Grove Cable making the following connections:
| Grove Modules | Connected to |
|---|---|
| Temperature&Humidity Sensor | I2C |
| Moisture Sensor | A1 |
| Light Sensor | A2 |
| UV Sensor | A3 |
| PIR Motion Sensor | D7 |
| Encoder | D2 |
| Button | UART(D1) |
| LCD RGB Backlight | I2C |
| Relay | D5 |
| Servo | D6 |
| Buzzer | D4 |
Running Example
- Open the web site: Grove_Indoor_Environment_Demo to download the whole project.
- Click Tools > Serial Port and select the Com # that the Intel Edison is connected to
Click Sketch>Import Library…>Add Library and import the library downloaded at step 1
Click File>Examples> Grove_Indoor_Environment_Demo and select the demo Click upload icon
- Open Serial Monitor, it will print the sensors’ information:
- Rotate the Encoder to check the sensor value on the LCD.
- In the “Send TextBox”, you can enter the following command to operate the sensors and actuators:
set [sensor][condition:>, < or =][ threshold],[actuator]=[action]
| Example | Description |
|---|---|
| _set temp>40, relay=1_ | if temperature is higher than 40℃, the relay opens. |
| _set temp>40, sleep=1_ | if temperature is >40℃, nothing to do. |
| _set humi>60, buzzer=1_ | if humidity is >60%, the buzzer beeps. |
| _set light>600, servo=90_ | if light intensity is >600, the servo truns 90°. |
| _set uv>80, relay=0_ | if UV intensity is >80, the relay closes. |
| _set pir=1, buzzer=1_ | if people detected, the buzzer beeps. |
| _set ms>40, relay=1_ | if moisture is >40, the relay opens. |
| _set ssid=name, psw=password_ | set the wifi SSID and Password.you can open a web browser, and go to the IP address displayed on the Serial Monitor or LCD. The default port is 88. he default port is 88. Such as: 192.168.1.101:88 |
Note:
The command should be ended with ‘/n’, so “NewLine” (in the Serial Monitor) should be selected.
A actuator can only be controlled by a sensor. If A sensor wants to control a actuator(has be controlled by B sensor), B sensor should be set sleep.
- WiFi connection. open the Serial Monitor, and set your ssid and password(as below). Check the local IP on the LCD or Serial Monitor. On a device connected on the same network, open a web browser, and go to the IP address above, you can see the sensor value.
Note: When visiting the web server, a port number(88)should be added,such as: 172.20.10.2:88.
