Help with mbot...... please

#1

I’ve tried 3 times now to install MBlock and programme my MBot through COM3 but it’s failing with the following message.

Can someone please help…?

Can you provide the following information?

Operating System:
mBlock Version number:

Also, have you upgraded the firmware and installed the Arduino driver from the mBlock IDE?

#3

I have the exact same issue, my OS: Windows 7.
I have made sure that the firmware is up-to-date, and i have installed the Arduino Driver.

Got any other suggestions?

#4

How many COM ports are you seeing? If you have more than COM3 I would suggest trying them to see if mBlock is using a different COM port. If that doesn’t make sense, post a screen shot of the Connect->Serial Port menu so that we can see what COM ports are showing up.

Hey how are you doing?

I have a question, we made a maze similar to yours and used similar coding but are at a dead end getting the mBot to complete the maze. Looking for any help and tips I can get. Thank you!

Hi @Jackie_Kindred,

Happy to try to help. I’d need to see your code and understand how you built the maze as well as what it’s not doing.

Regards,

Chuck
