I had successfully set up my first IOT Thing using a Nano 33 IOT, a simple temperature app.
I left it running overnight and noticed that It was offline in the morning.
I tried reloading the sketch but that didn't help and for some unknown reason the serial monitor was always unavailable. I then ran a Blink sketch using the 1.8 IDE just to verify that a simple sketch would work.
So I tried to set up the Nano again. I deleted the device (the Nano) and tried to reconfigure it. I double pressed the reset button to get back to bootloader mode with the slow blink on the yellow LED. The Nano shows up on port 10 in the Win10 device manager. The cloud app will find the Nano, ask for a name, and then proceed through steps 1-2-3 but then fails on step three with a message of "We could not find any Arduino device" which seems odd as it recognized it before, and indeed the Nano successfully installed before and worked previously. I did not see anything relevant in the Forum listings. I am quite baffled.
Any advice?
How are you powering this? Posting a schematic showing how you wired it with all connections will help. Also post links to technical information on the hardware devices.
I'm using an Arduino Nano 33 IOT this was successfully working with the cloud and even Alexa but for some unknown reason stopped. This is powered via the USB cable, either from my laptop or via a USB adaptor.
The connections are a DHT22 temp sensor and a barometric sensor using I2C. Sorry, no diagram, but this was all working correctly when first set up. Indeed, I run a Blink sketch successfully just to verify the connection and basic operation.
As stated above, the failure is during "Setup Device" In the third step, there is a message "Configuring Secure Element..." then it fails with "We could not find any Arduino device." Setup has already found the device to begin the process but for some reason fails when, I assume, it's trying to write a security key to the device.
I'm guessing the failure involves the serial connection or within the Nano with trying to reinstall the security data.
I've ordered a new Nano 33 IOT to try again. However, I think there is an underlying bug here. This seems like a straightforward process and should be easy.
I ran into this problem yesterday. Any luck getting that nano to complete the setup?
Hi I’m having a similar issue. My iot 33 fails at various stages of board installation, got as far as the security information once but then hung.
Often fails to detect the board at all. Until I reset it
I’m running Mac OS X.
I have had some success now, I updated my Arduino iot 33 firmware and just kept trying to link it to the Arduino cloud. Eventually it got as far as step 3 security setting, then hung. However by this stage it had added the Arduino device to the cloud and I could go into my “thing” find the sketch, open it in the full editor and go into the “secret” tab where I could add my SSID and password. At this point the Arduino went online via WiFi. Still can’t get Alexa to recognise my variables though.
