Pull Request Overview

The PR updates the Cyton Board Programming Tutorial to standardize on Arduino IDE v1.8.19, refine setup and upload instructions, and add clearer imagery for key steps.

  • Consolidates and clarifies required tool versions (replaces prior mixed 1.6.x / 1.8.x references with 1.8.19).
  • Reorganizes pre-upload and upload sections (switch heading changes, added verification and success steps, updated troubleshooting).
  • Adds or replaces images (bootloader LED animation and success confirmation screenshot).

Tip: Customize your code reviews with copilot-instructions.md. Create the file or learn how to get started.

- On Macs, this will be named **/dev/tty.usbserial-DN00nnnn**, where the nnnn is a combination of numbers and letters specific to your OpenBCI Dongle.
Plug in the Dongle to your computer and select the Serial port as shown below.

We filter out tty ports in the GUI as of 5.2.0 for both the Cyton dongle and Networking serial output (sending data to an arduino from the GUI).
