Step 1 of 6

Connect your board

Power on your Beaver Board — the OLED will show a PIN code. Click Connect in the toolbar, choose Connect via Bluetooth, and select your board. If it's your first time, enter the PIN shown on the screen.

Clear the floor and give the robot an open area — it will drive on its own for part of this tutorial.
