One problem that I had initially was that I was not able to upload code with the Fiov3-10-8-12 add-on that was available. I tested it on Arduino v1.6.5 but I was not able to see the board files due to the different structure requirements.
#HOW TO UNINSTALL VISUAL MICRO 1. DRIVER#
The SparkFun FioV3.inf unsigned driver file will include the old FioV3's VID and PID.Īrduino v1.0.6 would be the best to use with the older FioV3 add-on files. This indicates that it was using the older bootloader. If you look at the older FioV3's "hardware ID" in the device manager, it can show up as: USB\VID_1B4F&PID_0004&REV_0100&MI_00 If you are having issues installing the driver files from the GitHub repository, it's possible that you have an older version of the FioV3.

Feel free to use this modified serial passthrough code based on some of Jim's example codes. Not seeing serial data when an XBee is attached to the FioV3? Make sure to use the correct function as stated in Example 1 of this tutorial. Sending Characters through XBees with FioV3's Header Sockets I tested this case 4 times and was able to still upload code to the FioV3 and connect to the XBee through the XCTU. The Atmega32U4 communicates with the hardware UART pins with the serial and serial1 functions. This should be a separate line compared to the hardware UART lines that the XBee is attached to. Looking at the Eagle files, the USB data lines are tied to the USB data pins of the Atmega32U4. When an XBee is attached to the FioV3, you are able to still upload code. You need to manually select the COM port if you want to upload or use the serial monitor. Once the sketch runs, the Arduino IDE v1.6.5 will not automatically switch it back to the COM port that the sketch runs on. If you upload code using Arduino v1.6.5, the IDE will switch the COM port automatically when it is in bootloader mode.
#HOW TO UNINSTALL VISUAL MICRO 1. PRO#
If you are using a device with the Atmega32U4 (like the Pro Micro or Arduino Fios) Arduino v1.6.3 will keep the same COM port after uploading. There was a customer had the same problem but got it working after changing the settings.Īrduino IDE Automatically changing COM ports Try following these instructions from Arduino =>. If you have problems uploading code with this error using the Pro Micro on a Linux machine: avrdude: ser_recv(): programmer is not respondingĪvrdude: butterfly_recv(): programmer is not responding Makes sure that you do not have this in your code when the Atmega32U4 is not connecting to a computer's COM port: void setup()="1"' > /etc/udev/rules.d/les If your Pro Micro works on a computer but does not when you power it remotely with a external power supply, it's possible there is a piece of code waiting for a a serial connection before the rest of the code executes. Pro Micro Not Executing Code w/ Remote Power? Here is a more in depth tip on recovering Atmega32U4s with different bootloaders listed in the product page's tech tips tab: LilyPad Arduino USB - Atmega32U4 board, FioV3 - Atmega32U4, Pro Micro 5V/16Mhz, Pro Micro - 3.3V/8Mhz, etc) if this happens. There are ways to recover the an Atmega32U4 (i.e. When either of these cases happens, the device manager is not able to recognize the device and is usually seen as an "unknown device" when the microcontroller runs the sketch. It expects to have code that is compiled for another bootloader, instead of using its configured frequency with the oscillator. If you upload the wrong frequency, the IC will not be able to understand any new code that is being uploaded. Wrong Bootloader It's possible to brick your ATmega32U4 w/ Arduino bootloader if you used the wrong board selection with the wrong frequency. I recommend trying a different method than using the interrupt timers.

I am unsure of how to fix this issue if you continue to use code that interferes with the CDC. Interrupts Atmega32u4's built in CDC driver for USB communication can have timing issues when messing with the watchdog timer, sleep modes, and timer interrupts.
