# Blink
For this very basic Cylon example, we're just going to hook up to an Arduino and
blink an LED on it with a one-second interval.
To get started, let's load up Cylon:
var Cylon = require('cylon');
With Cylon loaded, we can now define our basic robot.
Cylon.robot({
Our robot has one connection, to an Arduino using the `cylon-firmata` adaptor:
connections: {
arduino: { adaptor: 'firmata', port: '/dev/ttyACM0' }
},
Our robot also only has one device (or at least only one we're concerned about),
an LED on pin 13.
devices: {
led: { driver: 'led', pin: 13 }
},
Next, we'll define the robot's work, which will be toggling the LED every
second:
work: function(my) {
every((1).second(), my.led.toggle);
}
And that's all the parts of our robot. All that's left is to start it.
}).start();
