Pymate fails to setup boot.py with the right known net

[Xykon]

The server mqtt.pycom.io does not listen on port 1883.

nmap -p 1883 mqtt.pycom.io

Starting Nmap 7.01 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2016-11-06 14:35 GMT

@Xykon Meanwhile got my WiPy 1.0 working and upgraded it to the most recent firmware. But the result in regards to the Pymate is almost the same.

...

@kurt Thanks, so we could agree that the problem is in pycom site? Hey, Pycom (@daniel) can you provide us with some information that Pymate is even working or not?

Hello @kurt @microman7k

We have fixed this issue and updated some files in the server.
You will need to go to the setup stage again, delete your device by swiping it left and add it again.

To make sure that everything works properly please boot your device in safe mode
https://docs.pycom.io/lopy/lopy/general.html#boot-modes-and-safe-boot
and remove the connection between 3v3 and G28 (P12) when Pymate asks you to reset the device.

@Roberto I gave this a quick test... the installation works OK now, the LoPy connects to my AP and I can see it go online and show the firmware version in Pymate.

I created a button in Pymate and told it to use digital pin 4.. I have an LED connected from P4 -> 1k resistor -> LED -> GND.

When I switch the button ON/OFF in Pymate the LED stays at a dim level.

When I bypass execfile('/flash/lib/pymate_basic.py') and use from machine import Pin; p_out = Pin('P4', mode=Pin.OUT); p_out(1) then the LED lights up bright and turns off with p_out(0).

I thought maybe Pymate is using expansion board numbers for digital pins so I also tried digital port 11 but I don't see any change.

[Roberto]

@Xykon I did the same test in my end and it works. To be clear, yes, the pins used by the apps are the expansion board pins (G 11) in you case.

Check List:

1. Go to the device list and refresh using the refresh button to make sure that the device is connected.
2. Once int he dashboard (widgets) long click on the button widget to edit. Make sure is of type button, and that is set the the right pin (11). As an output pin.
3. Save
4. Once back in the dashboard make sure you press the Plat button on the top. This will send the configuration of the pin to the device and allow you to use the button widget.

Make sure you do this before doing any code input in your device (for test propose) and check if the LED Turns on.

One last thing The User LED on the expansion board is the pin 16 G16. You can test with this Led first to make sure that everything is working as it should.

Thanks I got it to work now. I think I just didn't save it properly when switching from digital 4 to 11.

[Roberto]

@Xykon Great!. Hopefully @kurt will get it working as well

[kurt]

@Roberto Yes, thank you, I got it working on the lopy as well. My wipy 1.0 is still resisting, but I'm not sure if this device is healthy. I try it again when I have more patience for it. Cheers!

[Roberto]

Great @kurt im glad to know that things are working on your side. Thanks for all the input
