Cannot get "Installing Ardupilot on Here4" working #46
Description
Problem
I have been following your instructions on installing ardupilot on the Here4 but I cannot seem to get it to work.
The instructions have worked for me up until this line
Plug in Here4 vis Serial to USB converter, and wait for Mission Planner to detect board type 1043 , as shown bellow. If not detected make sure you have Here4 powered and RX/TX correctly connected.
Mission Planner is not recognizing the board.
Things I have tired
- Confirm the my USB to serial converter is working by using it to connect to the cube via the telemetry port.
- Reversing the RX/TX wires
Miscellaneous factors
- I don't think I am missing anything obvious, but I am new to ardupilot so it is possible.
- I ordered the incorrect battery connector so I have been relying on the serial connection for powering the Here4 during the board detection phase.
Software versions
Windows 11 laptop
Mission Planner 1.383 build 1.3.9384.38258 ArduRover V4.63 (3fc7011a) on CubeBlack
Side note
These two lines confused me.
Search parameter FLASH_BOOTLOADER , set the parameter to 1
Then click Refresh Params, check if the parameter auto resetted to 0, confirming successful update.
Do I need to click write parameter before clicking Refresh Parmas?
I have tried it both ways.
