Error Message Nano Every

Hi,
Just got a clone Every, blinks when I connect it to Mac but gives me the following error when I try to upload a sketch.

Hi @ba47. I'm going to ask you to provide the full verbose output from an upload attempt.

This procedure is not intended to solve the problem. The purpose is to gather more information.

Please do this:

Select File > Preferences... (or Arduino IDE > Settings... for macOS users) from the Arduino IDE menus.
The "Preferences" dialog will open.
Uncheck the box next to Show verbose output during: ☑ compile in the "Preferences" dialog.
Check the box next to Show verbose output during: ☐ upload.
Click the "OK" button.
The "Preferences" dialog will close.
Attempt an upload, as you did before.
Wait for the upload to fail.
You will see an "Upload error: ..." notification at the bottom right corner of the Arduino IDE window. Click the "COPY ERROR MESSAGES" button on that notification.
Open a forum reply here by clicking the "Reply" button.
Click the <CODE/> icon on the post composer toolbar.
This will add the forum's code block markup (```) to your reply to make sure the error messages are correctly formatted.
Press the Ctrl+V keyboard shortcut (Command+V for macOS users).
This will paste the error output from the upload into the code block.
Move the cursor outside of the code block markup before you add any additional text to your reply.
Click the "Reply" button to post the output.

Can you post a link? I've never 'seen' a clone Nano Every before.

david_2018 · July 6, 2024, 3:44pm

There is a "clone" called the Thinary Nano Every that uses an atmega4808 instead of the atmega4809.

Ah, I forgot about that one.

See link in post #4 by @david_2018 .

aliarifat794 · July 6, 2024, 6:02pm

Did you try with any other cable?

sterretje · July 7, 2024, 5:57am

@aliarifat794

How is that going to help? The problem is the "wrong" processor.

cattledog · July 7, 2024, 6:20am

MegaCoreX claims to support the Thinary Nano. It's also an excellent core for the Arduino Nano Every.

https://github.com/MCUdude/MegaCoreX/blob/master/README.md#nano-4808

ba47 · July 7, 2024, 8:48am

@sterretje post 4 driver download link is broken. I found the driver and installed it. However, when I try to install the "ThinaryArduino" library from downloaded zip file, I get an error. Tried installing the library manually (moving the file to Arduino libraries) but it doesn't show up when I try to add it in the sketch.

@cattledog could you please explain how to use MegaCorex ? I get lost.

sterretje · July 7, 2024, 8:55am

It's not a library, it's a board package. In file/preferences add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Thinary/ThinaryArduino/master/Thinary-boards-index/package_thinary_index.json as an additional board url. And nerxt use the board manager to install the board package. The instructions are actually on GitHub - Thinary/ThinaryArduino: Thinary Development Board for Arduino (just scroll a little down).

A similar approach for the MegaCoreX; instructions https://github.com/MCUdude/MegaCoreX/tree/master?tab=readme-ov-file#boards-manager-installation

@ba47 which of those two boards platforms did you install? "Thinary AVR Boards" or "MegaCoreX"?

sterretje · July 7, 2024, 11:03am

This indicates that you did not select the correct processor (or board).

If you installed the Thinary board package, you will need to select the Board / Thinary Development Boards / Thinary Nano Every in the IDE's Tools menu.

Similar for the MegaCoreX, you will need to select Board / MegaCoreX / ATmega4808. I do not know enough about the additional settings for this core.
