This software is responsible for receiving G-Codes from the Raspberry Pi, executing them, and reporting back the results.

Technicals
==========================
Created with eclipseArduino V2 - For more details see http://www.baeyens.it/eclipse/

Command line flash tool installation

Command line flash tool use
==========================
**NOTE:** We tag releases when they are stable. The latest version (on master) is not guaranteed to be stable.

See [releases](https://github.com/FarmBot/farmbot-arduino-firmware/releases) to find a stable release.

**OPTION A:** For less stable "edge" version:

```
git clone  https://github.com/FarmBot/farmbot-arduino-firmware
```

**OPTION B:** For stable release 1.0:

```
git clone -b 'alpha-1.0' --single-branch  https://github.com/FarmBot/farmbot-arduino-firmware
```
To flash the firmware onto the device, run this:

```
cd farmbot-arduino-firmware
ino build
ino upload
```

IMPORTANT
=========

Farmbot will NOT move until the configuration has been approved. To approve manually, send 'F22 P2 V1 Q0' (after the next PR)

To move, use the command 'G00 X0 Y0 Z0 Q0' where you type in the coordinates just after X, Y and Z.
