I can´t upload the homeduido.ino on my arduion mega

---

If i try to upload the homeduino.ino the Arduino IDE bring this message:

from C:\Users\Fabian\Documents\Arduino\libraries\RFControl/rfcontrol.h:2,
from sketch_feb14a.ino:4:
C:\Users\Fabian\Documents\Arduino\libraries\RFControl/RFControl.h: In function ‘void rfcontrol_loop()’:

Can someone help me?

@fabikrauss have you try to upload via arduino-mk instead of arduino IDE? Looking at the error it seems you didn’t download the RFControl library in your Arduino libraries folder pr something around those lines. I personally was never able to flash homeduino from mac/pc/linux I always had to use arduino-mk from the pi or another linux host (if anyone has an easy HowTo, not only me but the all community will benefit).

Yes I tried it with the makefile but there is allways the bug: /dev/ttyUSB1 is not found.
I think it´s a problem with the MONITOR_PORT but I don´t know how I find out the rigth one and change it. Sry I don´t use Linux very long.

on your pi make sure you have the correct USB port

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ls /dev/ttyUSB*
/dev/ttyUSB0
pi@raspberrypi ~ $

in the homeduino directory:

sudo nano Makefile

and change the line to what you got with the LS command

MONITOR_PORT  = /dev/ttyUSB1

i would say so to! try to download the arduino library again and import the RFControl library and the others of course too at the Arduino program. then try to upload again.

@leader21
Sorry, but it’s not running in arduino IDE for me too after a lot of trials!
I asked for that issue several times but there was no answer up now.
Maybe we can find the fault in that by using chat next time (not today …)

I tried it once in IDE an failed to, I just use the Pi now works good if you edit the Makefile.

ok sorry then! i never tried to upload via IDE.
then that’s beyond me.

ls /dev/ttyUSB*

doesn’t work but i found the right Makefile
Now i try it again
I tryed /dev/USB0 up to /dev/USB5
It still doesn’t work !
Were is my fail?

Whats the output of ls -l /dev/tty*?

Like @sweetpi arguments, it doesn’t have to be ttyUSB, my arduino uno is ttyACM0 for example.

dev/ttyACM it was possible to flash only my arduino uno
I can’t test how it works, but if I open the serialmonitor and tip in PING hello and then press ctrl+return there is no answer.

This is the same reaction on my homeduino, but even with the missing serial answers it is working well with pimatic!

How know I which Id I have to set if i want to use the rf-skrech with a nother arduino?
