Gemma MO SAMD Board

Post by JacknVegas »

Trying to use Gemma MO with a NeoPixel 7. I followed Arduino setup instructions, un her preferences added call at bottom. In Arduino u ender tools: board manager I find Arduino SAMD but no Adafruit SAMD. Where do I find the Adafruit SAMD?

The Adafruit SAMD Board Support Package is separate from the Arduino SAMD Board Support Package. Be sure to install both:

Thanks for the response. I always see the Arduino SAMD package. I never see an Adafruit SAMD package. Where do I find the Adafruit package. I have installed the URL https://adafruit.github.io/arduino-boar ... index.json After restarting Arduino and going to the tools drop down Adafruit does not appear in the Board Manager.

Adding the URL is just the first step. That's what allows the Arduino IDE to find the package. But you still need to install the package:

The Arduino never finds the Adafruit SAMD package. it finds the Arduino SAMD package without a problem. When I then search for the Adafruit SAMD package in there Board Manager it finds nothing. The URL doesn't seem to find any Adafruit packages.

Found one letter error in URL. Now Adafruit SAMD board shows up and loads. Sketch does not run--having trouble choosing correct port. Keep getting port busy.

Just to make sure - the Gemma M0 is showing up as a board option now in the Arduino IDE? It sounds like the BSP got installed, but just want to make sure it's actually showing up as expected in the IDE.

Make sure there is no other third party software that is trying to claim the serial port.
