I believe that this was stated before, but... ttyS0 = COM1 ttyS1 = COM2 ttyS2 = COM3 etc so your COM5 might well be ttyS4, ...but it's NOT ttyS5! You did try ttyS4 as well right? e.g. ------putting:------ $ MIB510='COM0' make micaz install.0 mib510 ------results in:------ Please use /dev/ttyS/ rather than COM0 (the latter often doesn't work) Error: No such file or directory -> /dev/ttyS/ make: *** [program] Error 1 ------whilst putting:------ $ MIB510='COM1' make micaz install.0 mib510 ------results in:------ Please use /dev/ttyS0 rather than COM1 (the latter often doesn't work) Firmware Version: 2.1 Atmel AVR ATmega128 is found. Uploading: flash Fuse High Byte set to 0xd9 Fuse Extended Byte set to 0xff rm -f build/micaz/main.exe.out-0 build/micaz/main.srec.out-0 try MIB510='/dev/ttys4' make mica2 install.0 mib510

When I clicked on the properties, its location states "Location 0 (USB <-> Serial)" However I tried this command again: MIB510='/dev/ttyusb0' make mica2 install.0 mib510 This is the msg: Error: No such file or directory -> /dev/ttyUSB0 make[1]: *** [reinstall.0 ] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/tinyos/cygwin/opt/tinyos-1.x/apps/TOSBas e' make: *** [install.0] Error 2 So I checked the "Ports (COM & LPT)" and the USB Serial Port (COM5) is active. So i entered this command: MIB510='/dev/ttys5' make mica2 install.0 mib510 This is the error msg: Error: No such file or directory -> /dev/ttys5 make[1]: *** [reinstall.0] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/tinyos/cygwin/opt/tinyos- 1.x/apps/TOSBas e' make: *** [install.0] Error 2 I changed to another USB port and checked the "Device Manager". The USB Serial Port (COM7) is active to I entered: MIB510='/dev/ttys7' make mica2 install.0 mib510 This is the error msg: Error: No such file or directory -> /dev/ttys7 make[1]: *** [reinstall.0] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/tinyos/cygwin/opt/tinyos-1.x/apps/TOSBas e' make: *** [install.0] Error 2 May I know where did I go wrong?

In some uses with some newer versions "they" started using the nNIX /dev syntax. I am purposely vague about the "somes" because I don't remember if download and message comm are fellow travelers, or if COM still works for one, and there is no way to squeeze a "version number" from cygwin (...actually there is: "cygcheck -s" will cough up a dll version, but everyone seems to deny it's applicability...). Anyway the bottom line is: try every possible combination of chars... MS Urs Hunkeler wrote: > Hi, > > Since in your message you ask for advise on cygwin I assume you're > running cygwin?
