Trinket Problems

Post by robohobobot »

I just got a trinket and I am having issues getting it to communicate.

I am using the recommend Adafruit IDE from the trinket page
AVRdude is 5.1 (but says no programmer has been specified)
and I am getting the error sending blink to the trinket


avrdude: error: usbtiny_receive: usb_control_msg: sending control message failed, win error: The device does not recognize the command.

(expected 4, got -5)

Not sure how to proceed, Thanks for any help provided.

Do you mean that avrdude is version 5.11 (vs 5.1)?

Did you update avrdude.conf? http://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-t ... e-dot-conf

If you did update avrdude.conf, did you try this fix? http://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-trinket/faq#faq-3

You downloaded the USBtinyISP driver for your OS? You might post in the Trinket forum.
