Issue uploading Edge Impulse firmware for Nano

Help
#1

I have a student trying to upload the Nano 33 BLE Sense firmware using flash_windows.bat, and they’re getting the following error message. Any help figuring out what’s wrong would be appreciated!

You're using an untested version of Arduino CLI, this might cause issues (found: 0.16.1, expected: 0.13.x

Hi @ShawnHymel,

Sorry for the late reply. I couldn’t reproduce this problem using the same arduino-cli version under Windows. Could you ask your student to run the following commands under the directory where the firmware is:

arduino-cli core list
arduino-cli board list

# replacing COMXX with the Arduino COM port
arduino-cli upload -p COMXX --fqbn arduino:mbed:nano33ble  --input-dir .

Thanks,
Aurelien

Thanks @aurel ! Here is the response from the student:

Hi @ShawnHymel,

Everything looks good on my side. what I’d suggest is:

  • upload to the latest arduino-cli version (recipes are embedded in the Arduino CLI)
  • if it doesn’t work, ask on the Arduino forum: https://forum.arduino.cc/
