I bought a couple of the version 1.0 of the Seeeduino Stalker (168), the price was great given the onboard RTC, battery backup, XBee adaptor, etc.
I had purchased a couple of the Cp2102 USB to UART convertors and these (or similar) were needed as the Stalker does not have an onboard FTDI
I have the convertor connected to the Serial connector on the Stalker in the following fashion
Convertor Stalker Serial Connector
5 V Vdd
Ground Ground
RX PD1(TXD)
TX PD0(RXD)
RST DTR
To test the system I just opened one of the examples, Blink, that did not work when I tried to upload.
For the board I chose all of the boards that had a ATMega168 onboard trying to find a mathc that would work and all I got was the "avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00" error
I have seen a couple of posts here and on the net that used the Cp2102 chip convertor successfully with the Arduino IDE and they made the same connections I did between the convertor and the board. Is there a setting or configuration change I need to make in the IDE to get this combo running?
Thanks
