Fortunately it should be easy enough, but timing is all important. So you need to manually enter the bootloader. If, for whatever reason, you don't have a working sketch installed on the board (such as you aborted the upload part way through) then there will be nothing there to listen for the "reboot into bootloader" instructions. Instead it relies on the sketch running on it listening for a special combination of events (open the serial port, set the baud rate to 1200 baud, close the serial port) to activate the bootloader. The Pro Micro, like the Leonardo, cannot automatically reboot into the bootloader like boards such as the Uno and Mega. I don't think it's bricked because if it was, my computer would still recognize it, but not know what it was (according to sparkfun), and as a result, I have yet to try the debricking method they suggest. I have also tried it on Ubuntu 14.04 with no luck. I've connected to my computer using a Micro USB to USB adapter, and I initially plugged the board into a USB 3.0, but then switched to 2.0 to see if it made a difference. Only the LED closest to the USB port is on, and it's solid green. It compiled just fine, and the IDE said it started uploading to the device, However, as it was uploading (or so I thought) I read a little farther and realized that the IDE wasn't set to use the right voltage (3.3V instead of 5V) I closed the IDE and reopened my sketch, changed the voltage to match up, and tried uploading it again. ![]() ![]() I figured it might just be a windows 10 thing because the tutorial was written on windows 7, so I forged ahead, and updated the device driver for COM3 in device manager, and attempted to upload a simple test for HID emulation: #include I recently bought a brand new Arduino pro micro from Amazon, I set it up according to the instructions on sparkfun, except that when I plug it in, Windows doesn't even show that it tried to install device driver software. ![]()
