1. Preparation
- Arduino IDE Installation: Refer to the Arduino IDE Installation Guide to complete the IDE installation.
- Board Manager Installation: Refer to the
Basic Environment Setup Guide
to complete the M5Stack board management installation and select the development board
M5Atom.
- Library Installation: Refer to the

2. USB Driver Installation
Driver Installation Tip
Connect the device to the PC and open the device manager to install the
FTDI driver
. For Windows 10, download the driver files matching your OS, unzip them, and install them through the device manager. (Note: In some system environments, the driver may need to be installed twice to take effect. Unrecognized devices are usually named
M5Stack or USB Serial. Windows recommends using driver files for direct installation in the device manager (custom update); executable installation may not work properly).
