Step 1: Place your 1Sheeld on your Arduino board then plug the Arduino to your laptop or PC.

Step 2: Download 1Sheeld Application onto your smart phone. The app is available on the Google play store at http://1sheeld.com/app

Step 3: Download 1Sheeld library

Download OneSheeld library to your computer through this link

Step 4: Extract the folder, copy it, and paste it in your Arduino libraries directory.

Step 5: Open my Arduino Sketch ( you will find it in the attached files)

Step 6: Upload your sketch

Here comes the most important part of the whole tutorial, switch 1Sheeld to the Uploading-mode (this is the switch labeled UART Switch on the board) before you upload your sketch to the Arduino board to avoid serial conflicts between 1Sheeld and Arduino, then press the Upload button in the IDE.

Upload mode is turned on when the UART switch is pushed away from the 1Sheeld logo.

Once you have completed your upload you need to switch 1Sheeld back to the operating mode. Don’t forget! If you don’t switch the UART Switch back to the operating mode your project will not work properly as you will have no communication between 1Sheeld and the Arduino board.

Operating mode is turned on when the UART switch is pushed closest to the 1Sheeld logo.

Step 7: Use 1Sheeld Application

Open 1Sheeld application on your Android smart phone. The application will first scan over bluetooth for your 1Sheeld, it will take a few seconds and the phone will find it. Once it appears on your screen as 1Sheeld #xxxx, you will be required to enter the pairing code (the default pairing code is 1234) and connect to 1Sheeld via bluetooth.

NOTE: If you are having trouble please make sure the bluetooth is turned on for your Android phone and that the Android phone is close to your 1Sheeld.

Step 8 : Access Game pad Shield

Select Game pad shield from the shields list and press on the multiple shields icon at the top right of the app.
