MicroPython 1.19 Example Scripts on W600-PICO Board

Description

Source code to accompany A Second Look at the W600-PICO Development Board.

This repository is meant to replace the older w600_micropython_examples repository which used MicroPython version 1.10 that comes preinstalled on the board.

Usage

1. Flash the most recent W60X MicroPython port wm_w600_lfs.fls onto the W600-PICO.

2. Copy all the MicroPython scripts (*.py) in the src to the W600-PICO flash memory.

3. Modify lib/secrets_template.py as required to connect to the local Wi-Fi network and save the modified file as lib/secrets.py.

4. Modify lib/mqtttdata_template.py as required to use a local MQTT broker and save the modified file as lib/mqttdata.py.

5. Edit demo.py to remove scripts if wanted. For example, if a connection to a Wi-Fi network is not possible, then remove the import customboot, and then the last three scripts import webserver, import mqtttest and import wifiswitch. If there is no local MQTT broker available, then remove the last two scripts.

6. Restart the W600-PICO. The scripts in demo.py should all be executed one after the other. It will be necessary to click on the Quit button in the default web page of the webserver to continue on to the last two modules.

Detailed instructions on how to update firmware of the W600-PICO and how to copy files to and from the development board's flash memory are available in A Second Look at the W600-PICO Development Board.
