Pymakr 1.1.2 VSC can't connect to lopy4 through Wifi?



  • I can make it work with USB and I can connect with putty or my FTP browser over Wifi but I can't connect in VSC (windows)?
    boot.py and main.py are empty
    project settings file:

    {
    	"address": "192.168.4.1",
    	"username": "micro",
    	"password": "python",
    	"sync_folder": "",
    	"open_on_start": true,
    }
    

    global file:

    {
    	"address": "192.168.4.1",
    	"username": "micro",
    	"password": "python",
    	"sync_folder": "",
    	"open_on_start": true,
    	"safe_boot_on_upload": false,
    	"py_ignore": [],
    	"fast_upload": false,
    	"sync_file_types": "py,txt,log,json,xml,html,js,css,mpy",
    	"ctrl_c_on_connect": false,
    	"sync_all_file_types": false,
    	"auto_connect": true,
    	"autoconnect_comport_manufacturers": [
    		"Pycom",
    		"Pycom Ltd.",
    		"FTDI",
    		"Microsoft",
    		"Microchip Technology, Inc."
    
    	]
    }
    


  • @KenM Yes I agree it's not very intuitive, I will improve the help text a little. The new Pymakr 2.0 we're working on (for atom) will have some good solutions, which we'll also build in to vscode after it's completed.



  • Thanks, Indeed that was the mistake, now it works.
    I was confused with the global setting and project setting which didn't make it clear what was used and what not.
    Maybe just change the help text to: Edit global settings file:
    "auto_connect": false for Wifi
    "auto_connect": true for USB



  • HI @KenM, can you tell me what the terminal output is when trying to connect over Wifi? Do you get a connection refused message?
    FYI to actually connect over wifi instead of com, you need to disable auto_connect in global settings, which will always try to connect on USB and will ignore the address setting (as noted in the terminal output)
