Install the Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect Firmware

Download the firmware for the Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect from https://micropython.org/download/ARDUINO_NANO_RP2040_CONNECT/

Unplug the board from the computer.

Force the board in bootloader mode by connecting GND and REC pin with a wire: https://docs.arduino.cc/tutorials/nano-rp2040-connect/rp2040-openmv-setup/

Plug the board into the USB port on your computer, it appears as a drive in your filesystem

Remove the wire between the GND and REC pin (before you copy the file onto the device)

Copy the firmware you downloaded on the drive that showed up in your file system

Once it is completely copied to the device, unplug the board and plug in again

Now you should be able to use Arduino Lab for Micropython development environment, https://labs.arduino.cc/en/labs/micropython

How to control the Builtin LED MicroPython

this is GPIO6 (D13 in Arduino)

 1 from machine import Pin
 2 from time import sleep 
 3 
 4 # using the internal LED on the Pico - pin 25 
 5 myLED = Pin(6, Pin.OUT)
 6 
 7 while True:
 8       # this switches the LED on for 1 second
 9       myLED.on()
10       sleep(0.1)
11       # this switches the LED off for 500 ms
12       myLED.off()
13       sleep(0.5)


Example of a WIFI-Access Point and Webserver to control the LED

 1 # Wi-Fi AP Mode Example

 3 # This example shows how to use Wi-Fi in Access Point mode.
 4 # this version by Albrecht Schmidt, https://www.sketching-with-hardware.org/wiki/
