I have recently had trouble programming my nerdkit. I have had mine for a while and had taken a break after doing the bitwise arithmetic project. I came back a few months later and I can no longer program my nerdkit. I know my wiring is correct, and I have redone it multiple times. I believe that the problem has something to do with the software on my computer, so I uninstalled and reinstalled winAVR to no avail. When I try to program the chip all I get is this in cmd:
The programmer Id and type are always a different random character, pi and M are just the last ones that came up. Can anyone tell me what's going on? |

Hi, There is a good explanation of this error in the library...which is not accessible right now, and many of us are questioning if it ever will become available again... If you search Butterfly on the forum, you should get some decent ideas. From what I have gathered from past experience, and searching on the forums is it basically comes down to the computer and microcontroller are not communicating. This can be for many different reasons. A few common things to check...
Hopefully this gives you a few ideas to get you pointed in the right direction. Someone else may be able to chime in with better advice. Good luck, let us know if you still are unable to get it going. Dave |

Did you know that you can build an analog amplifier with one transistor and a few resistors? Learn more...
