ARD Brick

The ARD brick contains an arduino nano board and provides an interface between the PC and the other I2Bricks. The ARD brick has four ports:
- USB (top) for the PC
- I2C (left and right) for I2C bricks
  [SDA:A4, SCL:A5]
- SPI (bottom) for SPI bricks
  [FRQ:D5, FSYNC:D9, SCLK:D13, SDATA: D11]
- RS-232 (bottom) for serial communication
  [RX:D0, TX:D1]

Serial Port Commands:
ard0 - returns the current version of firmware

Python Functions:
ard(port) - returns the current version of firmware

#Example Python code to test communication between ARD brick and PC comoputer

from I2Brick import *

port = I2Brick('COM4')             #Windows: Initialize serial communication with I2Bricks
#port = I2Brick('/dev/ttyUSB0')    #Linux: Initialize serial communication with I2Bricks

print(ard(port))

port.close()
I2Brick Firmware 3.0. Supported brick: ARD, OLD, DAC, ADC
