Reef Angel Forum

Using the Wizard to create simple code. Keep getting an error.

just bought this unit used from someone that couldn't figure it out either.

Here are the results I guess... I'm confirmed the port, and board tried with optiboot and regular reef angel controller... Running Windows 8

avrdude done. Thank you.

I was told it is a new USB TTL cable, never used... The unit does seem to reboot 2x while trying to upload.

Just wanted to add that info.

Was a code ever been uploaded to the unit before?

I do not believe so, he just purchased it within the last couple months.

PM me if you want to send the head unit for repair.

This is the same issue I'm having Roberto..I posted a screenshot in another post. I get the same issue as him.. I've tried all the other things mentioned on the other threads. Com port,cable ,board,serial monitor etc...

This is what I get trying to copy the error code I don't think its the right thing though.. So ill include a Pic... The code below was just me trying to revert the code back to default so it was not what the wizard made it was the default. Let me know what I'm doing wrong

I seem to only have one com port option to choose from com 5.. Even when I switch ports it says error com port 0 not found. Shouldn't I have 3,4,5 since it said those on the driver install? If I pull the USB out the com 5 disappears so I know it's seeing it.. I have tried most every option that's on the forum except the one that works Ha Ha. And I was worried about the PH probe J/K..
