General

Helloo,
I was trying to connect shrike lite to my pc, using the terminal.
I am unable to run any micropython code on the board.

Could someone help me with it…

Can you share more details to it what firmware are you using are you able to detect the board on your PC.

3

I am on Linux, tried accessing the board using the terminal interface, micropython firmware. The port is getting detected l but I am unable to run anything also not able to open the command line of the board.

4

Tried using Thony also, in that, in ports list the board is not getting detected, but in Linux terminal I am able to see the board

There can be more than one problems here.

Here are the possible sources:

  1. USB Cable connecting to PC / USB Connector on PC.
  2. User permissions
  3. Blocking programs like modemmanager

Here are the ways to Detect the issues:

  1. If you have any other other USB UART capable boards that you can use. Try to connect them. This would validate if the USB cable and the Port are working correctly.
  2. Check if you are able the see the /dev/ttyUSB* or /dev/ttyACM* based things appear when you connect the USB UART board.

If Both checks pass then you have some hope that USB Port, cable and Linux Driver detection is working.

Next, steps include checking for the user permissions.

  1. You need to have the permission to access devices. On Ubuntu/Debian systems you need the dialout group membership.
  2. On Arch and derivatives you need uucp, lock and others.

If you can fill in on the above. Then you can get some progress.
Tell more about you distribution and your hardware architecture (x64, arm64…).
