• To install a new library into your Arduino IDE you can use the Library Manager (available from IDE version 1.6.2). Open the IDE and click to the 'Sketch' menu and then Include Library Manage Libraries.
• If you use that approach, all you have to do is download the current version of PU2CLR SI4735 Arduino Library. Instead of using PU2CLR SI4735 Arduino Library class directly, you can use your own class that extends the original class. This way, you always have the current version of the library customized for your needs.
• This new library format is intended to be used in tandem with Library Manager, available since Arduino IDE 1.6.2. The Library Manager allows users to automatically download and install libraries needed in their projects, with an easy to use graphical interface in the Arduino IDE/Pro IDE and Arduino Web Editor as well as arduino-cli lib.

SoftwareSerial Library

The Arduino hardware has built-in support for serial communication on pins 0 and 1 (which also goes to the computer via the USB connection). The native serial support happens via a piece of hardware (built into the chip) called a UART. This hardware allows the Atmega chip to receive serial communication even while working on other tasks, as long as there room in the 64 byte serial buffer.

The SoftwareSerial library has been developed to allow serial communication on other digital pins of the Arduino, using software to replicate the functionality (hence the name 'SoftwareSerial'). It is possible to have multiple software serial ports with speeds up to 115200 bps. A parameter enables inverted signaling for devices which require that protocol.

Keypad is a library for using matrix style keypads with the Arduino. As of version 3.0 it now supports mulitple keypresses. This library is based upon the Keypad Tutorial. It was created to promote Hardware Abstraction. It improves readability of the code by hiding the pinMode and digitalRead calls for the user. Author: Mark Stanley, Alexander. I've been looking for a while inside Arduino's files to find the core library. However, I haven't found them yet. Where on my hard drive can I obtain the core library files (.cpp and.h) necessary for all Arduino code? Looking around on Google, I couldn't find a way to find the above files.

The version of SoftwareSerial included in 1.0 and later is based on the NewSoftSerial library by Mikal Hart.

Limitations

The library has the following known limitations:

• If using multiple software serial ports, only one can receive data at a time.
• Not all pins on the Mega and Mega 2560 support change interrupts, so only the following can be used for RX: 10, 11, 12, 13, 50, 51, 52, 53, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69

Libraries

The Arduino environment can be extended through the use of libraries, just like most programming platforms. Libraries provide extra functionality for use in sketches, e.g. working with hardware or manipulating data. To use a library in a sketch, select it from Sketch > Import Library.
A number of libraries come installed with the IDE, but you can also download or create your own. See these instructions for details on installing libraries. There's also a tutorial on writing your own libraries. See the API Style Guide for information on making a good Arduino-style API for your library.

Standard Libraries

• EEPROM - reading and writing to 'permanent' storage
• Ethernet - for connecting to the internet using the Arduino Ethernet Shield, Arduino Ethernet Shield 2 and Arduino Leonardo ETH
• Firmata - for communicating with applications on the computer using a standard serial protocol.
• GSM - for connecting to a GSM/GRPS network with the GSM shield.
• LiquidCrystal - for controlling liquid crystal displays (LCDs)
• SD - for reading and writing SD cards
• Servo - for controlling servo motors
• SPI - for communicating with devices using the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Bus
• SoftwareSerial - for serial communication on any digital pins. Version 1.0 and later of Arduino incorporate Mikal Hart's NewSoftSerial library as SoftwareSerial.
