Hi,
I'm a mechanical engineer and I don't know how to upload the spokePOV.hex file and other .c, .h, makefile and stuff. Could you give me step by step instruction, how to upload the files using AVRDUDE. I'm using the parallel port and the programmer on the PCB schematic (DASA AVR Programmer). I've downloaded the spokepovfirmware1_01.zip, there are about 6 files in it. Please help....
Step by step procedure for firmware upload using AVRDUDE

Re: Step by step procedure for firmware upload using AVRDUDE
All you need is the hex file. The .c, .h, makefile, etc. are sources in case you want to make your own modifications to the firmware.
But first, let me ask why you are trying to do this? The SpokePOV comes with a pre-programed chip.
We have a couple of tutorial pages which should get you going with avrdude:

Hi,
I'm doing it just out of curiosity, I saw that tutorial page it is helpful.
Thanks

The ATtiny2313A is a newer, low-power version of the ATtiny2313/V. But I'm not seeing anything at all to suggest that the A is not fully compatible with the V. You should be OK with that.

Hi,
I was not able to get 56ohm or 68ohm bussed resistor, is it possible to use 1kohm bussed resistor.

Ah, so you're rolling your own SpokePOV.prince11jose wrote:Hi,

1k resistors will cut the current to the LEDs down to 1 or 2mA. The ~60ohm resistors regulate the current to around 25mA. Your LEDs will be very dim, if they light up at all.
