NFC Grove with Arduino Wifi Rev2

Hello, I have an Arduino Wifi Rev2 and an Seeduino Grove NFC V1.1 to read some NFC cards.

I have no experience in programming with Arduino and I need some help to get this combination working.

This is the Instruction I am working with: this

This is the code of the Sktech I am using:

#include <NfcAdapter.h>
#include <PN532/PN532/PN532.h>

#if 0 // use SPI
    #include <SPI.h>
    #include <PN532/PN532_SPI/PN532_SPI.h>
    PN532_SPI pn532spi(SPI, 9);
    NfcAdapter nfc = NfcAdapter(pn532spi);
#elif 1 // use hardware serial

    #include <PN532/PN532_HSU/PN532_HSU.h>
    PN532_HSU pn532hsu(Serial1);
    NfcAdapter nfc(pn532hsu);
#elif 0  // use software serial

    #include <PN532/PN532_SWHSU/PN532_SWHSU.h>
    #include "SoftwareSerial.h"
    SoftwareSerial SWSerial(2, 3);
    PN532_SWHSU pn532swhsu(SWSerial);
    NfcAdapter nfc(pn532swhsu);
#else //use I2C

    #include <Wire.h>
    #include <PN532/PN532_I2C/PN532_I2C.h>

    PN532_I2C pn532_i2c(Wire);
    NfcAdapter nfc = NfcAdapter(pn532_i2c);
#endif

void setup(void) {
    SERIAL.begin(9600);
    SERIAL.println("NDEF Reader");
    nfc.begin();
}

void loop(void) {
    SERIAL.println("\nScan a NFC tag\n");
    if (nfc.tagPresent()) {
        NfcTag tag = nfc.read();
        tag.print();
    }
    delay(5000);
}

I have to admit that I dont understand this code I have never seen this kind of if else statements in my life and I dont know when the program is using which case.

If I follow these instructions I get this error

Code: [[Select]](javascript:void(0):wink:

I understand that there are different ways to read a NFC card I2C; UART maybe more?

But I dont know the differences neither which one I need to achieve my goal (reading a NFC card I dont care how the program does it I only need the informations given on the card)

Does anybody of you has an easy fix for a complete beginner with this kind of stuff so I can get the code working? Note I have never programmed anything in Arduino.

For me it looks like the compiler does have a problem with I2C… If I can get the program working without I2C I would take it I only have no idea how to accomplish it.

Could anybody of you give me some help?

kindly regards
Alex

You are using a serial port device, but the error is I2C, which is very strange.We haven’t tested Arduino wifi Rev2.
