2013-11-30 22:02:04 Is there a way to re-flash the Nova with a regular ICSP programmer?
I can't get it to show up on USB. jwatte

jwatte 2013-11-29 14:29:13 Thank you for your answer! I think I didn't make the question clear, though.
The I2C and USART ports are plain 100mil female connectors that I have matching headers for. Connecting is easy!
The A and D pins do not use 100 mil female connectors. Instead, it looks like some kind of shrouded blade connector. See picture.

What is the mating connector that I should use to connect to the A and D pigtails?
I guess I can just cut the wire and crimp my own, though?
Second question: I connected the Nova, selected it as Leonardo in the Arduino IDE (version 1.0.5,) and tried to upload, and it didn't work (avrdude said the device didn't support dynamic memory.) Then I tried it as Lilypad USB, and it did work. However, now when I re-connect it, Windows says the device failed (descriptor request failed.)
What device am I supposed to use in the IDE? Am I supposed to use some version other than 1.0.5?

jwatte 2013-11-29 07:29:39 My kit arrived today! It is so tiny! It looks fantastic, and the shield/connectors look like they'll make it really easy to use. I can't wait to try it out! cevinius

Mine came today. I agree -- it's super tiny, and super cute!
It seems like the I2C and UART pigtails are standard 100 mil connectors, which is easy to connect to.
What are the connectors used for the different parts?
- between main board and I/O board?
- on the top of the I/O board?
- For the D and A pins? (It looks like some kind of sliding servo-like contact, perhaps?)
[/quote]
1) Pins from nova to IO board, I think 1.27mm distance
2) These are just PH connectors.
3) These cables are not just A and D, also I2C, UART and so on. PH to our common Sensors connecor cable. Basically is like an adapter that you can add jumper wires as well. Quite convenient if you have IO expansion shield around.
All wires are included on the kit ;D Jose

Nova Basic arrived today!!! ;D Small, really small!!
This afternoon, I'll test it!
what a pity that no 1.5mm JST connectors kits in store .... :-\
[/quote]
Why do you need this connector? Indeed no kit for this connector on store just yet, since all connectors are included on the kit. Jose
