Arduino Programming With Atmel Studio 6.0

How to import the compiled Arduino IDE libraries into Atmel Studio 6.0 using a program written by Omar Francisco.

This will allow you to use the feature rich programming environment of Atmel Studio to program the Arduino Uno. Other Arduino boards such as the Mega can also be used inside Atmel Studio but that is outside the scope of this video.

Omar Francisco Arduino Installer Program

Setting up the Arduino USB to Serial programmer inside Atmel Studio.

I know that Omar had issues with filename spaces but I thought he fixed them. It might be you need to run the script as administrator because you are pointing to the "C:\Program Files (x86)" directory.
Try running it as administrator first and if that doesn't work copy the Arduino folder to your documents directory with out spaces.

Hello Shaker,
I'm not quite sure what you are asking. Are you trying to install the template package?
If so, you need to have the Arduino IDE installed first so the files can be imported to Atmel Studio.

Excellent videos, very very helpful, thank you for posting them!

Answered my own question; yes you cannot have spaces in the path. Even enclosing the path in quotes doesn't fix the problem, I had to relocate my files to a path with no spaces. Now it runs. :)

3:00 I've installed the terminal window extension but it receives data from the Uno with some data lost or with mistakes, the Arduino Serial Monitor on the other hand works correctly.

Hello Shaker,
I apologize, I misunderstood what you were doing.
I believe you have the original Arduino IDE installed, you successfully installed Omar's script without errors and you are trying to setup the default libcore libraries for your project. Is this correct?

I don't know what is causing this behavior. The good news is that Atmel Studio 6.1 fixes the bug and automatically imports the template libraries. Take a look at the video I did for Atmel Studio 6.1; link is in the description

For anybody stuck on the Arduino COM#, make sure to download the avrdude file under step 5B. We used WinRar but make sure to copy the avrdude.conf to the right folder if you want it to work!!

Could someone please paste here commands for programmer usage (11:34) ar paste link to website he is copy commands from? Thank you.

Hi,
Great tutorial. Any idea if the Atmel Studio works with pcduino?

Hey!
Is this way better than the original Arduino Software Envirement?

[bergweg]

I've tried a few tutorials, but still can get it to work. Usually it's either some <whatever.h> not found, path not found, or some variable, function not declared in this scope. So I was wondering if there is a way to compile an arduino "super" core  (extension *.a) library that includes all the .h and .cpp files that come with the standard Arduino installation (the SD, SPI, Seril, etc. libraries)?

The install is not working for me. My avrdude is located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\arduino\arduino-1.0.2\hardware\tools\avr\bin\avrdude.exe", and after clicking install, in the "-Setting User Variables" section of the output I'm getting the error was unexpected at this time". Is it required that the path to avrdude.exe not have spaces in it?

[GaRbAllZ]

Yes, download the new version of Atmel Studio and then go to VisualMicro(dot)Com and download that tool. It is a much better application and well supported. I did a few video on it if you want to take a look before you install it.

I followed this tutorial and could program my Arduino UNO but it's not working with MEGA. The code compiles and downloads with no errors but the arduino seems to be doing nothing. When I download the same code to a UNO board it works fine. What could be the problem?

I have a problem. I use atmel studio 7 for arduino. My problem is serial connection. See digital data with Osiloscop and logic analyzer . but i get framing error. how fix it ? Edit: use Atmega2560

Hello. i have a problem and i was hopping that you can help me

I have Arduino Leonardo and i don't know how to configure the external tools using the site that you pressented (jayconsystems) at the 5A part because over there is only explained for adruino uno.

[MrSwiss]

It shows the following error message when running our own written tool...


avrdude.exe: ser_open(): can't open device ".COM3": The system cannot find the f
ile specified.

avrdude.exe: ser_drain(): read error: The handle is invalid.

Press any key to continue . . .



Rechecked all the settings, it's definitely the right COM Port, COM3. Checked it with Arduino IDE.
Where did I make a mistake?

[shakermohsen]

I already installed arduino IDE but when I try to set up "toolchain" in " allconfiguration"i couldnt save it, it gives me the error that i mention above

[daegaur]

He I have a question. I have my program loaded on to my board. How would I go about erasing that program off so that there is nothing on it.

[shakermohsen]

Hi Dennis I ned ur help please am having difficulty in fixing "allconfiguration" window everytime i try to save my sittin it kept giving me an error saying

the 'address' start tag on line 34 position 59 does not match the end tag of


can you please tell me how to fix it step by step
thanks
