RA head unit "out of sync" with new release

[rimai]

Can you also post the features file?
I was able to compile and upload it, but want to use the same features to see if I can replicate the problem.

Here goes...

Code: Select all

#ifndef __REEFANGEL_FEATURES_H__
#define __REEFANGEL_FEATURES_H__
#define OverheatSetup
#define DateTimeSetup
#define VersionMenu
#define StandardLightSetup
#define COLORS_PDE
#define CUSTOM_MAIN
#define FONT_8x8
#define FONT_8x16
//#define FONT_12x16
//#define NUMBERS_8x8
//#define NUMBERS_8x16
//#define NUMBERS_12x16
#define NUMBERS_16x16
#define DisplayLEDPWM

#endif  // __REEFANGEL_FEATURES_H__

Thanks, Simon

I was still able to compile and upload fine.
Is this problem happening to any ino code you try or just yours?

[sjmusic2]

Both...the first code I posted was using the ControllerTester.ino example code.

What happens when you upload a very small code?

Code: Select all

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(57600);
Serial.println("Test");
}
void loop()
{
}

Does it work?

I tried reinstalling the RAC and then tried to upload your simple code without success and now the RA is unresponsive

Code: Select all

So, even on the really small code above it fails?
I think we'll have to repair it.

I'm going to try one more thing before sending it to you...

I will install RAC on my laptop and use that instead of my desktop and see if that makes a difference. Not sure when I will get an opportunity to do this, but I'll report back once its done.

[sjmusic2]

Eureka, I found the problem...

When installing RAC on my laptop the TTL drivers did not install properly so I went back to my desktop and manually installed the drivers there - low and behold that did the trick and after uploading the internal memory settings I could upload my custom code

That was an effort, but at least it is finally resolved !!
