hi everyone I need your help with my project.
I have esp32 connected with ORP sensor and I did the coding after I finished compiling the code and I press on the monitor serial in Arduino it shows error in this message ((Board at COM4 is not available)) also in Blynk show that the ORP sensor not online thank you

return 0;
}
if(number<5) { //less than 5, calculated directly statistics
for(i=0; i<number; i++)
amount+=arr[i];
}
avg = amount/number;
return avg;
}else{
if(arr[0]<arr[1]) {
min = arr[0]; max=arr[1];
}
else{

}

min=arr[i];
}else {
if(arr[i]>max) {
amount+=max;
max=arr[i];
}else{
amount+=arr[i];
}
}
}
avg = (double)amount/(number-2);
}
return avg;
}
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Connecting to ");
Serial.println(ssid);
WiFi.begin(ssid, pass);
int wifi_ctr = 0;
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED)
{
delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("WiFi connected");
Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass);
}
void loop()
{
static unsigned long GENERAL_printTime = millis();
ORP_Value=((30*(double)voltage*1000)-(75*avergearray(ORP_Array, arrayLenth)*voltage*1000/1024))/75-ORP_OFFSET;
if(millis() - GENERAL_printTime >= printInterval) //print to serial monitor and write to file
{
Serial.print(millis()/1000);
Serial.print(" sec -- ");
Serial.print("ORP value: ");
Serial.print((int)ORP_Value);
Serial.print(" mV -- ");
GENERAL_printTime=millis();
}
}
sorry for my English
what I mean is when I translate the code to esp32 it showed it is uploaded correctly but when I press the serial monitoring button it shows that Board at COM4 is not available
as you can see from the photo the second line was after compiling.
and the third line show when I press the serial monitoring button
thank i hope it is clear now
that's a somehow nice thing. But just saying "sorry" does not help to make it easier to understand what your problem is.
Somehow you are a lazy guy. You are the one who wants help
so make it easy to help you by helping your potential helpers.
Next time shoot the picture from a perpendicular view of the screen.
Check the picture yourself if it is easy to read. If it is not easy to read
take a new picture.
What you call "translate the code" is a two stage-process
1 stage: compiling the source-code into a binary
2 stage: transferring the binary data into the flash-memory of the ESP32
this is called upload. Please call it upload. This is the common term for it.
Click into the black part of the Arduino-IDE that shows the messages
Hard resetting via RTS pin...
Board at COM4 is not available
then press Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C to copy the complete content of the Arduino-IDE into the clipboard
change to your browser with the Arduino-Forum
click reply to start a new posting
Then click on the <|> -Symbol to create a code-section
then press Ctrl-V to insert the clipboard-content
Another try is to open the serial monitor before you start uploading
with serial monitor opened click on upload
The serial monitor will be grey during the compiling and the upload.

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.>
OK so this clears a few things. COM-Port 4 is the right comport because uploading itself works.
What is strange is the fact that the upload-tool detects a crystal with 41,01 MHz. while it should be 40,00 MHz.
Are you using some DIY ESP32-module?
Can you post a picture of the upperside and the lowerside of your ESP32-board?
Here is a demo-code that makes the onboard-LED blink and send "Hello World" once per second to the serial monitor
Can you test if your ESP32-board is able to connect to the comport if you upload this democode?
void PrintFileNameDateTime() {
Serial.println("Code running comes from file ");
Serial.println(__FILE__);
Serial.print(" compiled ");
Serial.print(__DATE__);
Serial.print(" ");
Serial.println(__TIME__);
}
boolean TimePeriodIsOver (unsigned long &periodStartTime, unsigned long TimePeriod) {
unsigned long currentMillis = millis();
if ( currentMillis - periodStartTime >= TimePeriod )
{
periodStartTime = currentMillis; // set new expireTime
return true; // more time than TimePeriod) has elapsed since last time if-condition was true
}
else return false; // not expired
}
unsigned long MyTestTimer = 0; // variables MUST be of type unsigned long
const byte OnBoard_LED = 2;
void BlinkHeartBeatLED(int IO_Pin, int BlinkPeriod) {
static unsigned long MyBlinkTimer;
pinMode(IO_Pin, OUTPUT);
if ( TimePeriodIsOver(MyBlinkTimer,BlinkPeriod) ) {
digitalWrite(IO_Pin,!digitalRead(IO_Pin) );
}
}
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("Setup-Start");
PrintFileNameDateTime();
}
void loop() {
BlinkHeartBeatLED(OnBoard_LED,100);
if ( TimePeriodIsOver(MyTestTimer,1000) ) {
Serial.println("Hello World");
}
}
If there is an LED connected to GPIO2 this LED will blink at a frequency of 5 Hz.
What happends if you unplug the ESP32-board.
Plug-it in new select tools comport 4 and then open the serial monitor?
