The ESP32-Chip is a powerful successor to the very popular


ESP8266, which, for example, is installed in the AZ-Delivery
NodeMCUs Amica V2 and Lolin V3. The biggest reformation of the
chip is the added Bluetooth 4.2 BLE connectivity. The AZ-Delivery
ESP-32 Development Board is the perfect companion for flexible
operation in the Internet of Things.

Driver installation
The AZ-Delivery ESP32 Development Board connects to your
computer via a Micro-USB-cable. The microcontroller uses a
CP2102-Chip for the USB-interface, which is normally recognized
by Windows partly recognized by MacOS systems.

If that, however, is not the case, then please download the current
driver from the link below, and then unzip it.
» http://www.silabs.com/products/development-tools/software/usb-
to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers

On Windows, you can simply install it by running


"CP210xVCPInstaller_x86.exe" or "CP210xVCPInstaller_x64.exe"
depending on your system. As a Mac user, you should install the
DMG file in your loaded archive.
After reconnecting the NodeMCU, it should be recognized as a
"Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge"-device (Windows).
Installation of the ESP32 Development Boards
Visit the following webpage https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software and
download the latest version for your operating system. Alternatively, you
can register for the Arduino Web-Editor and follow the easy-to-
understand installation instructions provided in there. The following first
steps use the Windows desktop version.

If the program has been started, then the storage location of the
first sketchbook, should be set under File > Preferences, for
example under my documents\Arduino. That way your scripts by
Arduino, which are named "Sketche" will be stored at the place
you want and prefer.

The ESP32 is not part of the IDE’s standard repertoire, and he is


not to be found in the Board-Manager. From here you can
download the Arduino Core-files for the controller:
» https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/archive/master.zip

Once you have completed that, unzip the contents of the


"arduino-esp32-master" directory into the hardware folder of
your Arduino-Sketchbook under (e.g. my documents\...) \Arduino\
hardware\espressif\esp32\. Then start the "get.exe" application,
which is located in the tools-directory, and wait for the complete
download of the required files.

Then, when you open the Arduino IDE you can select under "Tools
> Board" the "ESP32 Dev Module", and, in addition, a flash
frequency of 80MHz and a baud rate of at least "115200".
The First Script

Although, in most programming languages the first sign of


success is the appearance of the "Hello World!” phrase, when it
comes to Arduino and other microcontrollers, however, the first
sign of success is the blinking of the internal board’s LED. In
accordance, the script is called "Blink".

» Start the Arduino IDE and open the Blink-Script under "Start".

The methods "setup" and "loop" are always contained in each


sketch. The former is always initially executed and is normally used
to initialize pins and separated hardware. After that, the loop
method is executed and permanently repeated. For this reason, it
contains almost all other functions.
The board-internal LED has automatically been selected for some
time via the IDE’s own variable "LED_BUILTIN". Since the ESP32-
Core files for the Arduino IDE are still under development and the
Pin layouts vary very much depending on the manufacturer, this
variable does not work here. The board’s internal LED of the AZ-
Delivery ESP32 Development Boards lies on Pin 1. Change the
Sketch as shown in the middle picture.

With the second symbol (the arrow showing to the right) under the
command bar, you can load the sketch onto the NodeMCU.
If the upload was successful, then the LED of your board will start
blinking every second.

You did it! Congratulations!


Next, you should look at the existing scripts for the ESP32, for
example, "WifiScan". Compare the baud rates of the code with
your settings. Upload the sketch to the Development Board.
Finally, after a few seconds, you should see a list of all available
WLAN-Access-Points that are in your surroundings, as well as
their respective signal strength.

Thanks to the Arduino Code you can achieve so much more with
the ESP32 Development Board. Start your search for further
possibilities, best from the multiple examples of sketches in the
Arduino library and in the web, here at:
