There are three steps to use the 2.4G wireless serial for mBot and mBlock: Upgrade firmware for
mBot with USB cable; Connect with 2.4G wireless serial; Program for mBot and run it online.
1) Upgrade firmware for mBot with USB cable
2) Connect with 2.4G wireless serial: Remove the USB cable, plug the Wi-Fi dongle into your
computer, the light on the mBot’s Wi-Fi module will stop blinking and be steady on. Go to the
Connect -> 2.4G Serial –>Connect (Check that the √ mark stays on, if there is no check
mark after you clicked on ‘Connect’, that means the 2.4G is still disconnected. In this case,
please restart the mBlock software have a try).
3) Program for mBot and run it online: With 2.4G wireless serial connected, you will now
find that you can run the mBot "on-line". That is, starting the command sequence with a
choice from the Events category of commands: "When green flag clicked", "When SPACE
key pressed", etc.
