Trouble with Adafruit Ultimate USB GPS

Post by _Top_ »

All,
im having trouble while programming the GPS, everytime i try to upload a code i get this error message:
Connecting to programmer: .
Found programmer: Id = ""; type =
Software Version = Hardware Version =
avrdude: error: buffered memory access not supported. Maybe it isn't
a butterfly/AVR109 but a AVR910 device?
avrdude: initialization failed, rc=-1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override this check.

avrdude: error: programmer did not respond to command: leave prog mode
avrdude: error: programmer did not respond to command: exit bootloader im getting this error


Im using Arduino IDE 2.3.3 while having the GPS connencted via its own USB-C port directly to my laptops USB-C, the com-Port is the correct one and the board is the Adafruit circuit playground. does anyone have an idea?

Are you using this product?
https://www.adafruit.com/product/4279

If so, it does not require any Arduino sketch to be uploaded. The GPS data is available via a COM port created and accessed via the USB connector. The COM port is provided by the CP2102 USB-to-serial chip, which requires a driver to be installed.
