firmware updater cannot find prusa i3 mk2
pronterface working, octoprint working, even putty working
but firmware updater cannot find the fking port, rescan button doesn't produce any change or message.
seriously? no message? no popup? just Oh you clicked me? fk you. I am not working.
Re: firmware updater cannot find prusa i3 mk2
unzipped FirmwareUpdater.exe then I saw files inside the FirmwareUpdater
in js/main.js
child = exec("wmic path Win32_SerialPort Get DeviceID", function (error, stdout, stderr) {
ports = stdout.split("\n");
});
Problem is, There is no "wmic" command in my Windows 10 system.
** actually C:\Windows\System32\wbem\wmic.exe exists, but C:\Windows\System32\wbem is not in my PATH env. variable
That's why "Rescan" button not working.
I've updated my MK2 via command line
in js/main.js
var command = ".\\avrdude.exe -F -p m2560 -c wiring -b 115200 -P \"\\\\.\\"+PortToFlash+"\" -U flash:w:\"./fw.hex\" -C ./avrdude.conf -D"
d:\Personal\Desktop\FirmwareUpdater> avrdude -F -p m2560 -c wiring -b 115200 -P COM3 -U flash:w:1_75mm_MK2-RAMBo13a-E3Dv6full.hex -C avrdude.conf -D

avrdude done. Thank you.
Re: firmware updater cannot find prusa i3 mk2
Yeah, not sure if you get what I get, but its just Com1 and Com3. My system uses Com3 to connect. If one Com doesn't work, try the other.
And I agree, would be nice to have a bit more relevant information when it scans ports.

no com ports shows in port selective drop dialog. that is problem in my system... not multiple com ports problem like you.
this bug should be fixed. that command line, find COM ports using wmic.exe, should not use relative path but absolute path.
Re: firmware updater cannot find prusa i3 mk2
Thinking out loud.... so may be a load of rubbish...
can you connect to the printer in Pronterface, if so, can you type the com port that pronterface connected to, into the firmware updater?
