Arduino® Portenta Hat Carrier
8 Device Operation
The carrier is designed to function in conjunction with the Portenta family boards (refer to the Solution Overview
section for more details). For further information, consult the datasheets for Portenta X8, Portenta H7, or Portenta
C33 boards.
8.1 Getting Started - IDE
If you want to program your Portenta Hat Carrier offline, you'll need to install the Arduino Desktop IDE [1]. To
connect your Portenta family board with the Portenta Hat Carrier to your computer, a USB-C® cable is required.
8.2 Getting Started - Arduino Web Editor
All Arduino devices work out-of-the-box with the Arduino Web Editor [2] after installing a straightforward plugin.
Being hosted online ensures that the Arduino Web Editor remains up-to-date, boasting the latest features and
comprehensive support for all boards and devices. To begin coding in the browser and uploading your sketches to
your device, follow the instructions here [3].
8.3 Getting Started - Arduino IoT Cloud
The Arduino IoT Cloud supports all Arduino IoT-enabled products, enabling you to log, visualize, and analyze sensor
data, initiate events, and automate either your home or business.
8.4 Getting Started - Portenta Hat Carrier with Portenta X8 - Linux
The Portenta Hat Carrier with a Portenta X8 is a powerful system that runs Linux in its main core and Arduino in its
secondary core. In case you want to know more about how to use Linux with your Portenta X8 and your Portenta
Hat Carrier, you can check the official documentation for the Portenta Hat Carrier [4] and the Portenta X8 [5].
8.5 Online Resources
Having acquainted yourself with the device's basic functionalities, delve into its limitless potentials. Engage with
inspiring projects on Arduino Project Hub [6], explore the Arduino Library Reference [7], and visit the online store
[8] to augment your Portenta Hat Carrier with supplemental extensions, sensors, and actuators.
