Model: MakerFocus 2pcs D1 Mini NodeMcu 4M Bytes Lua WiFi Development Board Base on ESP8266 ESP-12F N Compatible NodeMcu Ar duino

How to use it?

Setup:

* Download the Arduino IDE from the arduino.cc site at en/Main/Software

* I found an OSX driver for the board at github.com on "adrianmihalko" 's page.

You will want the files under the ch340g-ch34g-ch34x-mac-os-x-driver

repository.

* Once both of these are installed open up the Arduino IDE

* Go into the preferences and add the url as stated in the product description

above (sorry can't post the url here)

* In the "Board Manager" search for and install the latest version of the

"esp8266" generic module

* Select the new "Port" added by the driver: (mine was

"/dev/cu.wchusbserial14120")

* Set the "Reset Method" to: nodemcu

* All done!

You should be able to write a simple "blink" sketch and upload it to your board

to see it work. The LED pin on this board is "2".

This setup also worked on a Mac, 10.13.16 and you can use the Blink example

from the Arduino website, replacing LED_BUILTIN with 2 and it worked.

arduino.cc/en/tutorial/blink

void setup() {

// initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.

pinMode(2, OUTPUT);

}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever

void loop() {

digitalWrite(2, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)

delay(1000); // wait for a second

digitalWrite(2, LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW

delay(1000); // wait for a second

}
