Installing the Arduino Libraries for the Sparrow Nodes

1. Download Arduino
2. Download and unzip the patch in a separate folder
3. Locate the installation folder of Arduino on your drive (for Windows it's usually Program Files)
4. Copy in Arduino\hardware\arduino\cores the contents of the folder sparrow_patch\Arduino\hardware\arduino\cores\sparrow
5. Replace the file Arduino\hardware\arduino\boards.txt with sparrow_patch\Arduino\hardware\arduino\boards.txt
6. Copy in Arduino\hardware\arduino\variants the folder named sparrow from sparrow_patch\Arduino\hardware\arduino\variants
7. Restart the Arduino IDE

After a successful patch, you should be able to select a new board named Sparrow from the Tools>Board menu. Connect the Sparrow Nest board through the supplied micro-USB cable to your computer and select the appropriate COM port from the Tools>Port menu

You're all set up!
