With the Arduino connected to the computer and remembering the COM Port number from above,
open a Command Prompt window, navigate to this directory and run the following command
upload #
Where the # is the COM Port number for the Arduino Mega board that you hopefully remembered
from the first step.
In about five seconds the task should be complete. Below is a "typical output". The name and the
size of the .hex file will be different, but eventually it should say the flash was verified and tell you
Thank you.
Note: When the software installs on a virgin Arduino board, it will self configure to operate at
38000 baud for the computer and 9600 for the CI-V bus.

Alternatively, you can download the source files, place the library files in the library and open the
sketch and build the application. To learn how to do this read up on the Arduino site.
If you do not wish to configure the router, re-attach the CI-V "shield" on the Arduino board.
STEP THREE: Configuring the CI-V Router
NOTE: When touching the Arduino and CI-V router electronics be sure to employ anti-static
proceedures.
Thank you.
