[C.CC USERS] Using Mac for Plumbing Firmware Upload

[James Brown]

Ah sorry I have now read the title.  Your question relates to Mac.  I don't
have an experience of Mac so most of what I have said is probably not
usefuly.

Hi

I am not really an expert either but 

-          Are you doing this using USB?

-          If so, the arduino board should register to a COM port number

-          This should be the same as when you use the arduino IDE.  Is this
working correctly?

-          did you get the COM port no in the dropdown on the firmware
upload and did you select it?

-          did you select the correct board in the dropdown?

-          Unplug and plug in the usb cable?

-          Try restarting the pc:  don't know why but I have had issues with
this error and restarting has occasionally been the only answer.

Hi, I'm really not sure if I'm doing this mail listing thing correctly, but
here goes nothin'!

 

So I'm trying to get started with using concurrency on my Arduino Mega 2560,
so I've gone into the Transterpreter software for Mac to upload the Plumbing
firmware onto the Arduino, but I keep getting this message in the window
that you upload from, it says:

 

Uploading Plumbing firmware

avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding

 

avrdude done.  Thank you.

 

firmware upload exited with error code: 1

 

I've tried ports:

- /dev/tty.usbmodem1d11

- /dev/cu.usbmodem1d11

- /dev/tty.usbserial-A9007U6Z   (this one gives a different message, saying
that it can't open the device and that there is no such file directory)

 

None of these work. It says in the Concurrency PDF that this firmware is
"just an overgrown Arduino sketch", so does that mean that I could take the
file that Transterpreter is trying to upload to my Arduino Mega and place it
in the Arduino IDE and just upload it from there and continue on how I
would, had this problem not occurred? If not, then does anyone know what
might be the problem and how I could fix this?

 

Thanks for any advice.
