Microchip WINC1500 Element

The WINC1500 element is used to enable Wi-Fi connectivity for an embedded device. This element is for using the Microchip WINC1500 module (found on the Adafruit WINC1500 Wi-Fi Shield) alongside a supported device.

The WINC1500 is a protocol element that can be imported into the Element Toolbox through the Add Element button located in the toolbox from the Embedded tab. When a WINC1500 element is placed onto the Studio canvas from the Element Toolbox, it also populates the toolbox with other Wi-Fi elements if they were not already available for that project type (such as with the Arduino Mega, which doesn’t natively contain Wi-Fi connectivity).
