Thank you Matt for your reply.
I have now successfully loaded and run my first Plumbing code on the
Arduino.
As a suggestion for the occPlug developers:
1. When you press the button to load occam code into the Arduino, would
it be possible for your code to test if the Plumbing firmware is present
and correct on the target board? If not, automatically upload it before
uploading the occam code. That would eliminate the need for the Upload
Firmware menu option, and make using occPlu much more user friendly.
2. OccPlug does not seem to release the com port correctly when it is
closed. If Occplug is started again, it complains that it cannot access
the comms port - the only way to fix this is reboot the laptop. (I am
running Windows 7 - but it is probably the same on any version of windows.
3. On my system, OccPlug does not detect the Arduino com port (as
appears to be shown in the Plumbing book) - I have to manually type COM3
in the port box.
