    Hello everyone,

    I have some problems trying to upload software to Nano Series devices.

    I followed the next procedure:

    - I connected the node to my Devboard.
    - The name of the serial port is COM3. If I use the index for my FTDI device, it doesn´t work. I have to write COM3 in app.rules
    - I typed make program to build my test application and program it to the device in the directory  ~/NanoStack-v1.1.0-GPL/Examples/nano_example_n120

    I have the message:

    --- Build complete ---
    ../../Tools/nano_programmer/nano_programmer -d COM3 --program nano_example_n120.
    hex
    device:COM3
    Programming mode.
    Setup: Device COM3.
    Serial port COM3 opened succesfully.
    Select.

    ...and the software didn't upload. What should I do? Any idea?

    Many thanks

      May I ask what is your target device (CC2430/CC2431/or?) and what programmer are you using?

      Hello,

      The target device is CC2430 and nano_programmer v1.3 (nanostack v.1.1.0)

      Thank you

      Hi,

      It sounds like you are using Cygwin. Under Cygwin the current nano_programmer utility uses a version of the FTDI libraries that use an index rather than COMX.

      So if this is the first FTDI device you plugged in, then it is 1. The second is 2 etc.

      Hi,

      That's exactly right, I'm using Cygwin.
      I have installed FTDI driver (CDM 2.04.06 WHQL). Everything works properly, the device address is 0x01 but when I run nano_programmer, there's an error:

      $ ./nano_programmer.exe -d 1
      device:1
      Setup: Device 1
      Serial port open failed with error message: No such file or directory.

      Any ideas?
      Thank you,

        Hi Jonoe,

        This sounds like a Sensinode Devkit support question more, so I think you should direct the question to support@sensinode.com. There you will get this resolved quickly.

        This forum is more on general NanoStack open-source questions, rather than product support.

        Thanks,
        Zach
