Do you have Arduino connectivity and do you have the correct Firmata sketch uploaded to the board?
Python script:
from pinpong.extension.unihiker import *
from pinpong.board import Board, Pin
from unihiker import Audio
from unihiker import GUI
Board().begin()
A Linux desktop is connected to the UNIHIKER via USB-C port. I run Arduino IDE 2.3.4 to work on other DFRobot boards. What do I have to do to make Board().begin() work successfully? Thanks.
Regards.
The error indicates a problem with the communication between the pinpong library and the UNIHIKER board. An incompatibility between the pinpong library version and the board firmware may cause this problem. The correct Firmata firmware may not be uploaded or initialized properly on the UNIHIKER board.
lia.ifatThe above issue is owing to the use of an obsolete PinPong package. Now that I'm on pinpon-0.6.1, I get a new message:

>>> from pinpong.board import Board
>>> Board().begin()
Please connect the development board !!!

However, the board is already connected to the desktop - currently running an SSH session. What else do I need to do? Thanks.
