INNOVATION LAB

Create a Simple Message Sender using the Micro:bit’s radio feature to send and receive
messages wirelessly between two Micro:bits?
1. Use the Radio blocks in MakeCode to send and receive text messages.
2. Set both Micro:bits to the same radio group so they can talk to each other.
3. Use the “on button A pressed” block to send a short message like “Hello!”.
4. Use the “on radio received” block to show the received message on the LED display.

5. Test your setup by pressing Button A on one Micro:bit and watching the message appear
on the other!
