Arduino Due No device found on COM6 or COM7 with Upload

Official Hardware Mega Due

Hello,

I'm trying to upload code to my new Arduino Due first time

Code is a simple servo motor control, which successfully works with Arduino Uno. Connection is GND, 5V and pin 9

I've installed Arduino SAM Boards from Tools/Board/Boards Manager then selected Arduino Due (Programming Port), but after verify and upload I got this error:

Arduino: 1.8.6 (Windows Store 1.8.14.0) (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino Due (Programming Port)"
Sketch uses 23984 bytes (4%) of program storage space. Maximum is 524288 bytes.
No device found on COM7
An error occurred while uploading the sketch

I've tried reconnect USB cable, then follow this guide:

  1. Press the erase button for about 3 seconds.
  2. Press the reset button.
  3. Upload the code.

but it does not helps. Not sure what I'm doing wrong

Any advice, guide or example would be helpful

Once you have connected the USB cable between your PC and the board, select a COM port: File>Tools>Port according to the selected board (you selected Arduino DUE Programming Port).

Sometimes the issue is a faulty USB cable, use another one and try again.

Hello,

Thank you for answer

It is COM6 with Arduino Uno and COM7 with Arduino Due, works fine with single wire connection directly from laptop, but problem with using of male-female USB cable switch, just does not recognizes port. Like this one:

I'm not sure, if problem with particular USB switch, because I've checked it with mouse or video camera, works well.

I want use it to avoid physical damage with multiple connecting and disconnecting the wire directly from laptop. I've ordered a new USB switch, waiting to check, if it is a reason

You can use a USB hub instead.

How does this switch protect your laptop?

Does the manufacturer of this product claim it offers protection of some sort? That seems very unlikely if it's merely a switch that connects the wires!

Hello,

no I mean physical damage with multiple attaching and detaching the wire during development
