Installation of the Board Support Package

To ensure the Arduino IDE supports your senseBox MCU and you can upload programs to it, you need to install two Board Support Packages beforehand. These include the necessary drivers and software to communicate with the senseBox processor. The senseBox Board Support Package also includes our senseBox libraries, providing you with all the basic methods for programming the included sensors.

Add Board Support Package

Add the following URL in your Arduino IDE under File - Preferences in the field for Additional Board Manager URLs:

https://github.com/sensebox/senseBoxMCU-core/raw/master/package_sensebox_index.json

Open the Board Manager by clicking on the Board Manager icon on the left side (see image)

Enter "ESP32" in the search bar above to find the packages faster and install the esp32 board from Espressif Systems. Attention! Make sure to install at least version 2.0.15-alpha3! .
