1. Download the grayscale sensor firmware

a. V1.1 grayscale sensor firmware

b. V1.0 grayscale sensor firmware

Note: V1.0 Grayscale Sensor firmware to be used with V1.0 Grayscale Sensor hardware and V1.1 Grayscale Sensor firmware to be used with V1.1 Grayscale Sensor hardware.

2. Install uKit Explore Blockly

3. Unzip the downloaded file routex.x.zip, and open routex.x.ino

4. Connect the USB to the USB port on Grayscale sensor, and another end to your PC. (make sure the USB is of data cable instead of charging cable)

5. Choose the correct board and COM Port

  • 5.1 Board: Tools > Board > Arduino Nano

  • 5.2 Processor: If your Arduino IDE version is above 1.8.6, you can choose the default ATmega328P. If the Arduino IDE version is lower than 1.8.6, select ATmega328P (Old Bootloader)

  • 5.3 COM Port: Select your COM port (you might have different port)

6.Click upload and upon successful upload, the grayscale sensor’s firmware had been updated.
