Connecting the Board to the Host PC

The AVR-IoT WA development board can be connected to a computer using a standard Micro-USB cable. Once
plugged in, the LED array at the top right-hand corner of the board should flash twice in the following order: Blue,
Green, Yellow, and Red. When the board is not connected to Wi-Fi , the blue LED will blink continuously. The board

The CURIOSITY drive should contain the following five files:
• CLICK-ME.HTM – redirects the user to the AVR-IoT web demo application
• KIT-INFO.HTM – redirects the user to a site containing information and resources about the board
• KIT-INFO.TXT – a text file with details about the PKOB nano firmware and the board's serial number
• PUBKEY.TXT – a text file with the public key used for data encryption
• STATUS.TXT – a text file with the status of the board
Double click on the CLICK-ME.HTM file to enter the dedicated web page to access the web application.
