var firmata = require('firmata');
 
//create the tcp serialport and specify the host and port to connect to
var sp = new VirtualSerialPort({
  host: 'localhost',
  type: 'tcp4',
  port: 41234
});
 
//use the serial port to send a command to a remote firmata(arduino) device
var board = new firmata.Board(sp);
board.on('ready', function(){
  console.log('actually connected to an arduino!');
