I can not create custum node for Arduino. I do not have it in the i / o menu, how do I do? Want to run an LCD display for a program that I made.

I'm in the middle of remaking a lot of the tutorial videos. I've made new videos for how to make Arduino nodes but haven't put them on the site yet. Here are the videos on youtube. Let me know if you have any issues. An LCD node should be pretty easy to make. In fact their might be one in the library (last tab) that you can use as a starting point.

Thanks! If I want to add text as an example, "hello world", can I copy that code and add it to the node? (A little beginner, but start to understand a bit ..) This is a super programs that we will use on the company to develop things.

The proper way to do it would be to add a text input to your node and either set the input value by right clicking on it or attaching a text activator node to that input. You could just hard code the text into your node but you usually want nodes to be reusable.

In case you haven't seen it here is a video about making an LCD node. The node creation stuff has changed since the video was made but the stuff about how to set the text is the same.

Hello again,
I'm trying but will not work. I'm taking a custom Arduino node for LCD display and it seems to have finished code already, or do I have to add a code? I have created a program that controls multiple relays depending on which button you press and want to add a message on the display that tells me which program I'm running. If I only get the node of text to work, I should be able to make a node for each message I want to display depending on which application is running.
PS. I'm trying to drive "hello world" in the Arduino IDE and it works great.

Hi, sorry for the late reply, I'm back from traveling now. If you mean you dragged the node form the library then yes there is code in there already but you might need to change it to fit your needs. It might be easier if you just send me a zip of your project file to ezra@embrio.io so I can see what you're doing. If you right click on your project node you can open up the folder where it is on disk. Also send me the Arduino program you have which is working with your hardware. Basically we'll want to make sure the code from the Arduino program was copied into the Embrio node correctly.
