Documented Code
Arduino Nano Code
void setup() {
}
void loop() {
}
This code is a basic template for the Arduino Nano. The setup()
function is used to initialize any settings or configurations, and the loop()
function contains the main logic that runs repeatedly. Further code can be added to read sensor data, control the RF transmitter, and manage other functionalities as required by the application.
