WiFi and Ethernet connectivity are discussed in later projects. Automatic Trigger The example programs rely on messages being sent to the Arduino via a serial connection.

27 CHAPTER 2 „ APPLIANCE REMOTE CONTROL The program then runs the setup function that tells the CPU to switch each of those digital pins into output mode, then forces them to an initial low state so all the relays are turned off when the program starts running. It also opens the serial port (USB on a Duemilanove) for communication with the host computer at a speed of 38400bps. begin(38400); // Set up the pins as outputs pinMode(output1, OUTPUT); pinMode(output2, OUTPUT); pinMode(output3, OUTPUT); pinMode(output4, OUTPUT); pinMode(output5, OUTPUT); pinMode(output6, OUTPUT); pinMode(output7, OUTPUT); pinMode(output8, OUTPUT); // Make sure the outputs are all set LOW initally digitalWrite(output1, LOW); digitalWrite(output2, LOW); digitalWrite(output3, LOW); digitalWrite(output4, LOW); digitalWrite(output5, LOW); digitalWrite(output6, LOW); digitalWrite(output7, LOW); digitalWrite(output8, LOW); } The program then enters the main loop, which is where the real action happens.
