Hi everyone,
I have built an OpenFlexure Delta Stage microscope with a Sangaboard V0.2.
For the Sangaboard V0.2, I ordered the PCB online and then soldered the circuit components onto the PCB myself. I did not populate the PCB with a USB receptable, nor did I populate the SERIAL_COM, the AUX, the I/O_pins, the 5V and the GROUND slots with any sockets or components.
I then managed to flash the Arduino firmware onto my Arduino nano clone using the old bootloader in the Arduino IDE.
Power supply to the Sangaboard is achieved throught an official Raspberry Pi 4 charger with 5.1V output from which I split off a branch to power the Sangaboard through a barrel jack connector. The Sangaboard is connected to my Raspberry Pi 4 through the same USB cable that I used to flash the firmware onto the Arduino nano.
My problem is, that the stage is not recognised in the Openflexure software.
I also tried to control the stage through the terminal using python.
Importing the Sangaboard library worked fine, but when I try to call “sb = Sangaboard()” the port auto-scan also doesn’t find any open serial port.
Does that sould like a problem with the Sangaboard or rather with any setting in my openflexure setup?
Any help would be highly appreciated and I’d be happy to supply any further details if necessary.
