Load the blink sketch
up (Figure 12) and select
the Uno as your board. I
usually check what serial
ports are available under
the “Serial Port” menu and
make a note of them. I
then plug my FTDI cable or
board in and give the PC
enough time to recognize
it (by now, you’ll have
realized that I’m working
on a Windows machine). I
take another look at the
Serial Port menu and
choose the new port that
has appeared.
