Arduino Yún Remote Due Blink
Demonstrates how to upload remotely a sketch on DUE boards.
This is a special version of the basic Blink example. It's made for demonstrating how to enable the possibility to upload a sketch on a DUE board and a Yún shield using the remote upload feature (via Wi-Fi or Ethernet) offered by the Arduino Software (IDE).
Preparing Arduino Due For Remote Upload
The only instruction added to the basic Blink is the
checkForRemoteSketchUpdate()
function. As suggested by the name this instruction is responsible to check if there is a new sketch to upload on the board. This is required only on the Due because you need to erase the flash before uploading a new sketch. The same action is performed automatically when you upload a sketch using any of the USB ports.
To enable the remote upload feature you need to upload this sketch the first time with the USB cable and then make sure you will include the checkForRemoteSketchUpdate()
function in all other sketches at the beginning of the setup() function. If you forget to include it, you will need to upload the sketch again via USB port; it could be a voluntary choice to stop the remote upload functionality.Hardware Required
Arduino DUE board
Yún shield (optional, for subsequent remote upload via WiFi)
Circuit
The sketch must be uploaded using USB, then the next upload may use the Yún Shield and WiFi.

7 Most Arduinos have an on-board LED you can control. On the Uno and8
9 Leonardo, it is attached to digital pin 13. If you're unsure what10
