Flashing using PlatformIO fails for BC66-NA

[bart-iot]

Hi there,

I am using your platform for developing openCPU code for a BC66-NA module. It works great but flashing using PlatrformIO fails. Flashing the binary with IoT flash tool works fine. PlatformIO reports this:

Use manually specified: COM9 Uploading: program Waiting module for POWER-ON or RESET <=========================> DONE Starting <======== ERROR: EPP Answer *** [upload] Explicit exit, status 2

Monitoring using PlatformIO works fine.

Any ideas what can cause this?

Hi USB driver...

[Wiz-IO]

BC66-NA ? I not have NA module for test and this platform not support NA modules...

[bart-iot]

Thanx for your reply. I also have a BC66NB evaluation kit, that has the same problem with flashing. I installed the drivers according the documentation, but problem stays. I think there is not really a big difference between BC66NB or BC66-NA .. at least the delivered SDK is identical

IoT Tool work? ( original flasher )

[bart-iot]

Yes that works fine.

[Wiz-IO]

no idea .... use IoT Tool ... app bin file is in project build folder

[bart-iot]

Yes I already did that, so will keep doing that. Thanx. :)

I ran into a similar issue (using BC66), see https://github.com/Wiz-IO/platform-quectel/issues/15#issuecomment-810963028 for a possible solution.
