   • tch_tech_16P_24C
   • tch_consumer
   • tch_producer
5. Click on 'Tools' and 'Board' and choose the corresponding board:
   • TCH Technology Consumer128
   • TCH Technology Consumer64
   • TCH Technology Producer128
   • TCH Technology Producer64
   • TCH Technology Producer Consumer
6. Click on 'Tools' and 'Port' and choose the port attached to teh USB-serial adapter.
7. Test compile the sketch by pushing the check-circle at the top of the sketch window.
