Connect GND Black Wire to common power/data ground
Connect the SCL Green Wire pin to the I2C clock SCL pin on your Arduino. On
an UNO & '328 based Arduino, this is also known as A5, on a Mega it is also
known as digital 21 and on a Leonardo/Micro, digital 3
Connect the SDA White Wire pin to the I2C data SDA pin on your Arduino. On an
UNO & '328 based Arduino, this is also known as A4, on a Mega it is also known
as digital 20 and on a Leonardo/Micro, digital 2
Install Adafruit_seesaw library
To begin reading sensor data, you will need to install the Adafruit_seesaw library
(code on our github repository)(). It is available from the Arduino library manager so
we recommend using that.
From the IDE open up the library manager...
Search for Adafruit seesaw, and click Install
Now from within the IDE, open up the Adafruit seesaw Soil Sensor Example sketch:
