JeeNode USB programmer is not responding works in Arduino IDE

Hello,

I have a brand new JeeNode USB v5 board (Wireless 868MHz).
I use a Arduino platform (1.77 IDE from .org)
I am able to do a two node test with the JeeNode v5 in conjunction with a RFM12b board. So the boards are ok.
From with the Arduino IDE I can program the JeeNode v5 board via Com5
Then I have loaded the same file into the Atmel Studio 6.2 IDE with a Visual Micro Arduino Plugin.
When I try to program the JeeNode USB board from Com5 it goes wrong (Use Arduino Uno board setting in Atmel Studio and should be compatible).
As arguments for the AVRdude I have -CC:\IDE-arduino\hardware\tools\avr\etc\avrdude.conf -v -v -patmega328p -carduino -P\\.\COM5 -b57600 -D -Uflash:w:$(ProjectDir)Debug\$(ItemFileName).hex:i 
I got the message Programmer is not responding
For an Arduino Uno board these settings work (different Com port however).
How can it work in the Arduino IDE and not from the Atmel environment
Please help thanks

Hi,

Each arduino ide has a version number and works a certain way. Visual micro replicates the functionality and applies the correct rules for each ide version.

Arduino.cc is the main release. arduino.org made a copy of an earlier version but used a higher version number.

Why not use arduino 1.6.5r2, the current release.

Alternatively you can try configuring arduino.org as an Arduino 1.5 application in visual micro. Open the Ide Locations configuration dialog from the Micro Explorer or by clicking it in the Applications List. Remove the path you set for the Arduino 1.6 app and set the path for the Arduino 1.5.x app.

Hi John,

When I go in Atmel Studio to Debug, Start without debugging it seems to work. However from Tools Eternal tools it does not!
Any idea why this is not working?

Hi,

External tools is not a part of Visual Micro.

Visual Micro ensures that arduino works. "Start with or without debug" should upload using com5 if you have selected com5 in the tool bar. The blue and green toolbar arrows do the same as do the shortcut keys to it's easy to use and more accessible than external tools.

If you want to upload using a different tool please see the "tools>visual micro>programmers menu". If you use this menu it is the same as clicking "File>upload using programmer" int eh arduino ide so don't use it if you don't need it.

Hope this explains things
