Introduction

This version takes a step back and removes a lot of the aspects that make Loom 3 very hard to work with. This results in a more open and easy to work with framework that allows user to choose to use Loom and its features, or simply use the reliable software written for these sensors without the loom overarch.

Install

The install process is fairly simple:

Install Arduino

Install Board Profiles

  1. Open Arduino IDE
  2. Once Open Click File > Preferences or Ctrl + ,
  3. In the text box labeled "Additional Boards Manager URLs" paste this text into the box https://adafruit.github.io/arduino-board-index/package_adafruit_index.json,https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OPEnSLab-OSU/Loom-V4/main/auxilary/package_loom4_index.json
  4. Press Ok
  5. Next click Tools > Board > Boards Manager
  6. Search and install the following Board Profiles
    • Arduino SAMD Boards
    • Adafruit SAMD Boards
    • Loom SAMD Boards V4
  7. Install the latest version of all three boards as they appear

If you use Mac:

Give Arduino IDE Full Disk Access: System Preferences->Security & Privacy->"Privacy" tab->Full Disk Access->+ plus button to add Arduino You will also need to install Developet Tools, which requires Admin access.

Troubleshooting

If you get permissions error accessing the library folder, and are using a Mac, see note in the installation section above. If you are updating from an old version of Loom, you may need to do a "clean install" by removing the Arduino15 folder, and starting the process from the beginning to install again.
