4. Waspmote IDE: Download and Installation

The first step is to install the Waspmote IDE (Integrated Development Environment).
This IDE can be found on:

http://www.libelium.com/development/plug_&_sense/sdk_and_applications

The Waspmote IDE is based on the open source Arduino platform compiler, following the same style of libraries and operation.

It is important to use the version found on

Libelium website

and no other version of Arduino IDE. This is because the version

available on the Libelium website has been properly tested and for which we can assure optimum operation.
