Hi,
I am a teacher and have a student that bought an mBot through my classes, but he is unable to connect his mBot through USB cable. When trying to connect to Serial Port in mBlock, all options are grayed out, so he can’t choose any - See attached photo. Seems that he can’t get the Mac to recognise the mBot at all.
Can you please promptly advise what went wrong?
The steps he is following are:
- if the mbot sotware is open, close it
- connect the USB cable to the Mac and to the robot
- open the mblock software
- turn on the robot (using the switch on the roobt)
- go to connect => Serial Port => select the right device
