Flowcode Support Board

I installed the necessary software to compile the flowchart for the Raspberry Pi Pico. It is possible to compile the flowchart, but it is not possible to compile it directly for the Raspberry because it is not recognized in one of the computer's ports. So I am sending some screenshots of the settings. In one of the screenshots, only the flowchart compilation was done (it works). In another screenshot, an attempt was made to compile directly for the Raspberry (it does not work, because the Raspberry is not recognized). What could I be doing wrong? Maybe I forgot to install some important driver, but I don't know which one.

Hi

In the last screen shot above, you have forgotten to set the programming port.

Hello.
To program the PICO,
With the PICO unplugged you need to hold the BOOTSEL button down, then plug the pinco in.
You should hear the USB sound and you should see PICO's directory appear.
Now you can release BOOTSEL button, and program target.
If you wire up a PCB tactile button between the reset line and GND you wont need to have the PICO unplugged to set it in boot mode.
You press and hold reset, press and Hold BOOTSEL, release reset, then release BOOTSEL.

The above information can be found here

Hi

Don't forget to check it actually shows up in Device Manager.

If you do as Martin suggests then you should get a choice to select the Programmer Port. If you don't then you may have a driver or usb lead issue.

W11 can have driver issues.

Hi Iain.
No, the PICO does not generate a VCP, it generates its own drive instead.
If it did and Flowcode required access to it there will be n/a like there is for any targets that require a VCP., e.g Arduino, ESP32 etc.

Hello. I checked the step by step and saw that I had not installed the raspberry SDK. I installed it and everything worked very well. I appreciate everyone's help.

Hi

Glad it is working. I like the Pico and hope the latest version Pico2 W is soon supported.
