Ray,
I have spent endless hours trying to connect this board to the linux system. I abandoned that idea and tried just doing via the Mac OS and I have been able to get the whole arduino library and hardware set up. Now, my board is dead. I can’t power it up via USB or 24v transformer. This was working for a week and i tested it with some valves. Now what?
ok, what i have found is that these changes have to be made in the linux system, not in the Mac files. When i open the files in the linux, i can not find anything called /etc/udev/rules.d/60-rayshobby.rules. All i have is /etc/udev/rules.d/50-usbtiny.rules and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistant-net.rules and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistant-cd.rules
Frankly, I purchased this with the intention of using it for my sprinklers and making some minor changes. I have spent hours following the instructions online that are incomplete and very difficult to follow. You have responded with additional instructions and those have also been incomplete. The last post you added contains instructions that I can’t follow. I am not able to find the folders you are making reference to. I am quite capable of doing what i want to do with proper instruction.
I do have v2.1 and have made the changes as you suggested. I now have the following error:
avrdude: Warning: cannot query manufacturer for device: error sending control message: Operation not permitted
avrdude: error: could not find USB device “USBasp” with vid=0x16c0 pid=0x5dcUSBasp is selected as the programmer and USBasp is selected as the active USB device in the virtual machine.
i think that i am making progress. The issue i am having now is when i try to upload, i get the following error
Avrdude: Error: could not find usbtiny device (0x1781/0xc9f)
I have been trying to follow the instructions, I’m finding that they are somewhat difficult to understand. I did open a program and i still have an error:
