Near the top of the download page should be some text reading "Download from:" followed by a link titled. This should take you to the download page. Click the " 32 bit" option for the platform that you are running (for example click the 32 bit link next to "Windows:" if you are running a Windows machine). The list of versions contains an entry titled " Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers", next to it there should be a one or more links. Go to the eclipse website and find the downloads page (at the time of writing this is here ). So if you have eclipse already I would advise having a second copy on your computer and an 'AVR workspace' for AVR development so that any failures breakages are contained to AVR workspace. I recommend having a separate workspace and Eclipse version because the AVR plug in seems to corrupt both the Eclipse installation and the workspace over time (every now and again the installation inexplicably breaks, taking the workspace with it). Moving on to Eclipse is very much for when you are more sure footed about AVR development.īrew up a cup (or glass) of your favourite beverage and hopefully we will be done installing before it gets cold, warm or whatever temperature it shouldn't be.well, we should be done at least before it sprouts mould.įirstly we will need to download Eclipse itself. If you are at the beginner stage I would point you towards googling "getting started with Arduino" and taking it from there.
If you don't have either yet, I would advise looking into the Arduino or similar to get started. To program AVR devices you will either need a programmer and your AVR (two separate units) or an AVR with a programmer on board, like the Arduino. If you are working from a home computer with an internet connection and your computer has USB ports your good to go. It would also be prudent to check that the corporate firewall does not block and (just type these addresses into the address bar or click the links, if you get a warning from your firewall then you don't have access to these sites). in your place of work) you need to get permission to install software on your machine. If you are operating on an office computer (i.e.
