Getting Started

Install USB driver

  • Windows Users: Most versions of Windows won't automatically load the built-in driver for USB com ports. You'll have to download ST's USB driver:

    • Non-Windows XP Users download version 1.4.0 drivers. Unzip the file, run the executable, and then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\STMicroelectronics\Software\Virtual comport driver in Windows Explorer and double-click either dpinst_amd64.exe for 64 bit systems, or dpinst_x86.exe for 32 bit.

    • Windows XP Users download version 1.3.1 drivers. Unzip the file, run VCP_V1.3.1_Setup.exe, and then go to C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\Software\Virtual comport driver in Windows Explorer and double-click the executable.

  • Linux users to ensure that you have the correct permissions to connect as a normal user you'll need to copy the file 45-espruino.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d, reload rules with udevadm control --reload-rules, and ensure your user is in the plugdev group (you can check by typing groups). You add it by typing sudo adduser $USER plugdev and then logging out and back in. Arch Linux users need to add their user to uucp and lock groups instead.

  • Mac OS X and Chromebook Users: The board will just plug in and work, without drivers!

Change DFU driver

For windows users:

  • Step 1. Press and hold BOOT button and connect to computer you will see STM32 Device in DFU Mode at device manager as below.

  • Step 2. This says that you need to use zadig_xx.exe to change DFU driver from STTub30 to WinUSB as below. If we can't see any info on the Zadig, please click Options--> List All Devices, then select STM32 Virtual COM Ports.

1. Install Espruino web IDE

Espruino Web IDE

2. How to use Espruino Web IDE

  • Step 1: Connect the Wio LTE board to computer using a micro USB cable. On device manager you can see a new COM Port device, on MacOS it is STM32 Virtual ComPort, on windows it is STMicroelectronic Virtual COM Port.

  • Step 2: On the Web IDE click the left top icon, choose Espruino board in the select box.

  • Step 3: To learn more about the IDE, please click help and then tour as below.

3. How to load modules

In Espruino, Modules are pieces of pre-written code (libraries) that perform common tasks, such as interfacing to different bits of hardware.

They can currently be used in a few different ways:

3.1. Espruino Web IDE

If you're using the Espruino Web IDE, simply write require("modulename") on the right-hand side - as you would have seen in the reference pages. When you click the Send to Espruino button, the Web IDE will automatically look online for minified versions of the modules you need, download them, and load them onto the board. You don't need an SD card or an internet connection to the Espruino board itself.

3.2. Load Module - the default mechanism

If you are using the Web IDE as is, the modules will be loaded from http://www.espruino.com/modules/. This URL can be changed in Web IDE settings.

To save space, most modules are provided as a minified version and the Web IDE tries to load minified versions first with default configuration.

For example, using require("ADNS5050"); will make the Web IDE loading the minified module from http://www.espruino.com/modules/ADNS5050.min.js.

3.3. Load Module from Github

For now, as you can type a URL into require, you can actually just pull a module right off GitHub:

require("https://github.com/espruino/EspruinoDocs/blob/master/devices/PCD8544.js");

You can even look at the history of something on GitHub, and can then require a specific version of that file with:

require("https://github.com/espruino/EspruinoDocs/blob/d4996cb3179abe260c030ed02bcb0d2384db6bbd/devices/PCD8544.js");

The URL comes from clicking <> by the commit you were interested in.

3.4. Load Module from NPM

If you activate this option in Web IDE, you can load modules from the NPM repository. Right now it:

  • only loads the latest version there.
  • only works if the module contains a single file.
  • can cause some confusion with Espruino's modules, for instance clock.

For example using require("async"); will make the Web IDE loading the tar.gz file (with automatic extraction) of the module from http://registry.npmjs.org/async.

3.5. Load Module from local folder

If you are using a local project folder, the Web IDE will automatically create an empty modules folder inside. Put a module there and you can load it with require("myCustomModule");.

With default Web IDE configuration, it will look for modules following this order:

  • local minified
  • online minified
  • local normal
  • online normal

If your own module has the same name as one of the existing ones, the Web IDE will use the minified version from online first.

If you need it anyway, you can provide a local minified version or you can change the Web IDE configuration from .min.js|.js to .js|.min.js or even myCustomModule.js|.min.js|.js to get it working.

3.6. Stand-alone Espruino

If you have an Espruino with an SD card (but you're not using the Web IDE), you can copy the modules you need into a directory called 'node_modules' on the SD card. Now, whenever you write require("modulename") the module will be used.

3.7. Internet-enabled Espruino

Right now there isn't a way to make Espruino automatically load a module from the internet when required without the Web IDE. This may be added in the future, but the fact that require is synchronous while network connections are asynchronous makes this difficult to do reliably until yield is added into the interpreter.

Until then, the following asyncronous code will dynamically load a module from the internet on demand.

function loadModule(moduleName, callback) {
  require("http").get("http://www.espruino.com/modules/"+moduleName+".js", function(res) {
    var contents = "";
    res.on('data', function(data) { contents += data; });
    res.on('close', function() {
      Modules.addCached(moduleName, contents);
      if (callback) callback();
    });
  }).on('error', function(e) {
    console.log("ERROR", e);
  });
}

4. Play with Onboard RGB LED

  • Step 1. Config the R, G, B numbers, the arrange is 0~255.
  • Step 2. Copy the code to IDE and upload to board.
  • Step 3. The on board RBG LED will be turned on.
WioLTE.setLEDPower(true);
WioLTE.LED(r,g,b); // please modify the RGB to values with range 0..255)
// Dynamic colors show
WioLTE.setLEDPower(true);

var rgb = new Uint8ClampedArray(3);
var pos = 0;
function getPattern() {
  pos++;
  for (var i=0;i<rgb.length;) {
    rgb[i++] = (1 + Math.sin((i+pos)*0.1324)) * 10;
    rgb[i++] = (1 + Math.sin((i+pos)*0.1654)) * 10;
    rgb[i++] = (1 + Math.sin((i+pos)*0.1)) * 10;
  }
  return rgb;
}
setInterval(function() {
  var color = getPattern();
  WioLTE.LED(color[0], color[1], color[2]);
}, 100);

5. Play with SD Card

!!!Note Epruino firmware v1.94 is not support SD card drive, please use v1.96 or later, the latest version is v1.99.

  • Step 1. Plug a micro SD card to the card slot, please format the SD card as FAT32.
  • Step 2. Copy the code to Espruino IDE and upload it.
var fs = require('fs');

// Init SDCard
WioLTE.init;

// List files
console.log('List files on root path:\r\n', fs.readdirSync());
// Write file  
fs.writeFileSync("hello.txt", "Hello World");
// read file
console.log(fs.readFileSync("hello.txt"));
// append file
fs.appendFileSync("hello.txt", "!!!");
// read again
console.log(fs.readFileSync("hello.txt"));
