No Raspberry programmer?

I followed the steps here: https://www.dexterindustries.com/Arduberry/getting-started/

and I don’t see raspberry pi gpio programmer listed. Please help, I need this urgently :frowning:

ok, that was due to arm architecture I use… Ichanged it in the setup script and got it installed.

Now however I get AVR degice not responding
initialization failed, rc=-1

the first time i tried upload it complained about something 0x0c!=0x00. now i get the error above…

if I run acrdude:

avrdude -c gpio -p m328p

avrdude: AVR device not responding
avrdude: initialization failed, rc=-1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.

__sudo ./trouble.sh

Tried with dexter distro… same result… avrdude: Device signature = 0x000000

Seems I just bought myself a brick :frowning:

A local stora has Atmega chips on stock… but I don’t have a programmer… how can I flash it to try another chip?

Ok, it seems you don’t use bootloader… that’s actually cool… so arduberry is atmega programmer?? I’ll try this tomorrow: http://www.dexterindustries.com/forum/?topic=repairing-a-broken-arduberry

You owe me one guys. Hope it works, I need my robot by Friday!

Hi zapp0,
It indeed looks like you have a broken Arduberry. Can you just check if all the connections are soldered properly and check if the ATmega 328 is connected properly (the notch indicating the pin 1 should be facing the side away from the Raspberry Pi connector). Can you also post some good pics of the Arduberry from both the top and bottom side so that we can try to find if anything is wrong.

If you would like it to be replaced, you can get in touch with us at http://www.dexterindustries.com/site/?page_id=65 . But I don’t think that you’ll be able to get it by friday. The fastest way to get it working would be to get a spare Atmega chip and try using it.

Arduberry indeed does not use the bootloader and we use the Raspberry Pi SPI pins to directly program it, so you don’t need to have a programmer.

Sorry for all the troubles.
