Mbot ranger initial setup problem with PC


#1

Hi guys,
I’m quite desperate and hope that in thius forum I’ll find an answer.
I already contacted support via mail but until now no solution.

I’m trying to connect mbot ranger to my pc equipped with win7.
About two month that I’m trying it…
here’s the attempt :

  1. downloaded the app mbot v5.1.0; when I try to select model
    mbot ranger , the diplay starts with flicker until it becomes black…
    no possibility to use it; sometimes the PC blocked totally.
    It looks like incompatibility with graphic card. Or?
  2. then after contacted support, I tried to use web application on PC ;
    on firefox starts ok, on google chrome I need to start and then reload the page…
    after that on both the browser when I try to connect the mbot ranger
    via USB , the following msg got : “your computer doesn’t support disc ch340.
    Problem with ARM based computer” ;
    but the driver CH340 is installed and also Mlink is installed.
  3. tried to connect via bluetooth by using mobile application and got the msg :
    "please restore firmware via PC application "…
    PC application is not working and I’m asking my self if this is
    a joke… :frowning:

My PC is equipped with graphic card nvidia GEforce 8400 GS,
processor amd athlon II X2 250;
the disc ch340 is visible on COM9, so it is correctly installed.

Can anyone help me ? Really I don’t know what to do.
Can I maybe update driver for CH340? Or is it ok the one
downloaded and installed with mlink?

BR/Paolo

hi
Did you try with mblock3 or arduino IDE?
maybe you can upload your boardfirmware with arduinoIDE and go back on mblock and try again
