Title: Problems uploading software and lights out
Post by: gr33n on April 04, 2018, 10:49:18 AM
I tried uploading software including Acyclotron, etc which didn't seem to work. This resulted in no lights or sound from the unit. I have just tried loading the Atmegatron v2.5 to rectify but still no lights/success. Any help appreciated!

p.s not surprisingly, EasyUploader shows a 'Failed' upload.

I think I have sorted this out - it seems to have been a problem with the USB port on my MacBook Pro.

Excellent, glad you got it working. Sometimes the computer needs a restart after installing the FTDI drivers for it to work properly.
