Help getting uf2 file #11

Closed kstisser closed 5 years ago

kstisser commented 5 years ago

I am looking to update the firmware, and was following this guide which led me to your page: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-crickit-creative-robotic-interactive-construction-kit/update-your-crickit. However, they say drag the uf2 file onto the board. I did not see a uf2 file in any of the releases and it was not evident how to build one. Can you please help clarify how to get the uf2 file?

@deanm1278 do we need a release for neotrellis?

deanm1278 commented 5 years ago

I'd like to have releases with the production firmware for each board if possible.

problem is we link to 'latest' in the crickit guide, but latest is neotrellis only :/

Thank you for the quick response. However, I tried to flash the new file, but am getting an error: E:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. I followed the tutorial, with only the USB to microUSB in the Seesaw only connection to the computer. The Green light is on, and the yellow light is pulsing, but when I try to do anything with the windows explorer with the E drive it freezes up on me for a long time. When I try to copy the file you directed me to I get the error I mentioned above. Do you what might be wrong?

ladyada commented 5 years ago

if you're running some sort of antivirus sometimes that confuses it - try disabling it or trying another computer, just drag the UF2 only!

I just performed the update with the UF2. Everything went okay; however, the cricket now flashes red about 5 times, pauses then continues to repeat. Is this normal or is the red flashing instead of solid green light something is wrong?

ladyada commented 5 years ago

that means the DC power is bad :)

@deanm1278 this came up a few more times so i deleted the latest release
