I installed Farm OS 14.2 on a Pi 3 and connected it to a mega 2560. I tried it with and without installing the ramps v4 board. I cant get it to connect to the arduino. I was trying v1.2 ramps
Is it safe to assume you bought your Arduino board from a different vendor than FarmBot, Inc.?
Some third-party Arduino brands use a different USB port than the official ones. Usually that port is ttyUSB0
, which is not auto-detected by FBOS.
Here is how you can manually set the USB port of the Arduino board:
- Plug in the Arduino to the FarmBot.
- Reboot the device.
- Determine the path of your Arduino by looking for a log that says something like this:
Detecting available UARTs: [“ttyACM0”, “ttyAMA0”]
- Enable “SHOW ADVANCED SETTINGS” in the device settings panel.
- Manually enter the correct path in the panel below (probably
ttyUSB0
).
