Interfacing flowcode program on adruino BL0055 eblock2 board
I'm working on a CAN Bus communication with eblock2 but I've been having several issues and they are listed below
1 : recognition of the ardruino port and bl0055 eblock2 usb on my pc device manager : I found the link below on how to set it up but after downloading the drivers, I couldn't find on my device manager

2. How to upload each programs on each CAN nodes using flowcode

Re: Interfacing flowcode program on adruino BL0055 eblock2 board
Hello,
To program the Arduino boards you need to plug the USB B cable into the arduino itself, it cannot be programmed via the E-block.
The arduino device should appear under the Ports section of device manager.
In Flowcode select the port inside Build -> Project Options, then use the Build -> Compile to chip to send the program to the Arduino.
Let us know how you're getting on.

From the device manager, the USB is not recognised as it can be seen in the attached file. I downloaded the latest eblock driver. Tried it on another pc, same thing. How can I go about that fixing that problem. I tried using the steps on how to install USB drivers as well but still the same issue

From your explanation, you mean I will need to plug in both port A and B to complete the setup then the USB drive will be recognised?

Hello.
To program the Arduino that's on the BL0055 you only need the USB lead plugged directly into the Arduino.
The only time the USB is required to be plugged into the BL0055 board is when using ghost or you want to boost the voltage going into the BL0055 and have not got the recommended power supply.
Normally the USB going into the BL0055 is not required.
If you do want to use Ghost with the Arduino shield BL0055 then the driver can be found here, within the Resources tab.

The picture of the setup is attached to this message for better understanding. After downloading the drivers from the resource file and installation, I connected the USB cable to port A of the arduino as seen in the picture then on the device manager, the port for adruino is recognised but there is still issue with the USB which is still the same problem

Re: Interfacing flowcode program on adruino BL0055 eblock2 board
Hello.
With Flowcode closed and the USB lead plugged directly into the Arduino, it should show up within the windows device manager.
Check to see what the com port number is and then open your project in Flowcode.
Within your Flowcode project select Build > Project options and make sure that the correct com port is selected for Programmer options (General Options tab if Flowcode v8)
What version of Flowcode version are you using?
If after you have done that, and if you still have an issue.
Can you please post your .fcfx, .c and,msg files and we can see if we can investigate what your issue is.

Ah, in that case by all means post the reply on here.
But in future, these forums are for Flowcode versions up to v8 only.
For any other v9+ issues, can you please use these Flowcode forums.
When starting a new topic, we recommend using the following post icons:
