  3. From the menu, Tools > Board, select "Boards Manager" and install the RedBear Duo board support package to the IDE.

  4. Connect the Duo to your computer through the USB port of the Duo. Note that, it is not the RBLink's USB port if you are going to use the RBLink for Grove System components, the following photo shows the setup (connected to Grove RGB LED):
