Steps to S8 on your MicroPython board

1. Prepare your PC to work with your board
   • Follow steps to access your board from your PC e.g.:
     The "Running your first script" instructions in MicroPython tutorial for the pyboard
2. Test your board editing (by hand) the boot file e.g.
   • Set main.py file to
     import pyb
     pyb.LED(4).on()

Experiences with a board

1. connected to board with PuTTY (windows 115200baud COM4)
   check w/simple commands written by hand
2. tested correct working of the board
   Test Passed for minimal script (5 lines of python code)
3. Added boot.py to the main folder with name "py8Boot.py"
4. tried to load boot
   evaluating: import py8Boot.py
   OUT of MEMORY!!!

Conclusion

The size of scripts to run is really small, and with a boot of 35kb it is going to out of memory!
