# Duo: Getting Started with Arduino IDE
---

The Duo is installed the customed Particle firmware by default during manufacturing, which enables you developing applications using Arduino IDE. You can directly connect your Duo to computer via its native USB port or, mount your Duo onto RBLink and connect the RBLink to computer via RBLink USB port.

1. Connect the Duo dierectly to your computer via its native USB port with micro USB cable. Alternatively, if you have a RBLink in hand, you can mount the Duo onto your RBLink and connect the RBLink to your computer via RBLink USB port with micro USB cable. It's fine you connect the Duo directly to computer while it is mounted onto RBLink.

2. (**Windows Only**) Install USB driver. If you connect the Duo directly to computer, then install the Duo application USB driver and the Duo DFU USB driver. If you connect the RBLink to computer, then install the RBLink USB driver. Please follow the [Windows Driver Installation Guide](windows_driver_installation_guide.md) to install those drivers if you havn't done it before.

You are supposed to check the [board package change-log](duo_arduino_board_package_changelog.md) to see if there is a new released version of the board package. If available, you can simply follow the [Arduino Board Package Installation Guide](arduino_board_package_installation_guide.md) to update the board package to the latest version.

Since Duo board package v0.2.5, there is always a copy of the Duo's system firmware within the package. According to the board package change-log, it declares which version of the system firmware that should be compatible with applications developed based on the corresponding board package. If you've worked through the [Out-of-Box Experience](out_of_box_experience.md), you should have known the system firmware version of your Duo. If not,
