debugging using a avrispmkii via libusb-win32

I can build and upload with Visual Micro and Visual Studio 2012 with no problem using a avrispmkii via libusb-win32. However when debugging serial monitor window comes up trying to connect to com20. The avrispmkii is using libusb-win32 not com20. Any idea how to get the serial monitor to look at the libusb-win32 port rather than com20?

Hi,

The debugger uses serial so it needs to connect to a serial port.

If you do not have a usb cable connected to the main arduino usb port then you can use an FTDI cable (or other) to connect to other arduino serial ports if available on your hardware or  use 1 or 2 digital pins and the SoftwareSerial debug option. 

The port or settings that the debugger will use can be overridden in the project properties (RemotePort, LocalPort, RemoteTransport etc)

There is an article here which needs more work but should explain things a bit more.

Hope this helps, if you find a way to use a programmer such as the avrisp to send serial messages we could make it work.
