Brand new Edge Dev Board does not start.

Development Boards
1

Got a brand new Edge in the mail, I followed instructions at https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sp … are-hookup, checked the connectivity as explained - all is good. Then tried with a coin cell, and after that with the Serial Basic breakout (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/15096) - checked the voltage, it says 3.32V, result is the same in both cases: nothing.

I understood that the blue led should be blinking…, everything is off, and nothing seems to happen.

Any suggestion about the way to move forward? Any tests I could do, or anything I would have missed?

Any suggestion welcome,

Thank you!

Olivier LD.

Have you attempted to program the board via Arduino?

The problem is Sparkfun edge board is not reset properly, it takes many reset attempts to start board …

due to this i am not able to upload programme into board.

Firstly i had try for upload and power up the sparkfun Edge using FTDI cable (TTL-232RL-3v3) but there was no blue blinking and everything is off and seems like nothing happening.

next day

after many attempt of resetting board get start , after that i again pressed reset then it stay off , again i do many attempt of resetting device using reset button then it start end so on…

board is not just ON even if i give only 3.3v and ground (to BLK), to make board start i have to do many try of resetting the device … :roll: :roll: :roll:

That’s very odd. So you are able to get the board started using the multiple reset technique you describe?

yes, i have to do multiple reset to get board started … due to this reason i am not able to program the sparkfun Edge even once. :?

sir , and one more thing that there is 100k pullup resistor at switch 14 (GPIO 14 ) on board but schematic shows it should be 10k resistor. :!:

Hii, Can someone explain when exactly blue led is blinking in sparkfun edge board ? and also there is any link for source code of Sparkfun demo Project. :?:

hello, someone Know where to see error_report in Sparkfun edge (Tensor flow ) Board ? :roll:

Hi

The blue LED blinking is (likely) the default program running on the board. It should be a TensorFlow Micro Speech example, though some people find it difficult to get the board to recognize their voices.

The best place to go for examples is to use the Arduino IDE. You can install the core for the Artemis to gain access to some examples.

Hi

i had found the micro speech example and after read it i think the Blue led is blinking only when No error detected.

But in my sparkfun edge board blue led is not blinking. These show that there is error occurring that cause exit the Program and blue led is not blinking. So i wanted to know where to check error Log ?

And How to upload hex file into My Sparkfun edge using J-link.
