Dear Sir/Madam,
I just received the ESP32-S3 and I plugged it up into my computer using a USB-C Data Cable, at first the light at the top blinked different colors and the bottom right showed tiny white light. I was able to upload the example blinking code on the ESP32-S3 from Ardunio IDE and the bottom left of the ES3-S3 was blinking once I connected the BNO085 9-DoF Sensor it showed a green light, I tried to upload the code to the BNO085 9-DoF to confirm in the Serial Monitor that it working and now the ESP32-S3 only shows the tiny light at the bottom right. I then unplugged the BNO085 9-DoF from the ESP32-S3 and now the Ardunio IDE no longer recognize he ESP32-S3. The only way I can see a light that shows on the ESP32-S3 is to press the reset button twice and it shows a red light at the top and a blinking light at the bottom left of the ESP32-S3. How can I get this back to working. What am I doing wrong? please help. Thank you
If you’re using Windows try going into Windows Device Manager and seeing if your board is showing up as a COM port. If you don’t see it unplug the cable and plug it back in to see if there are any changes.
Hi thank you so very much for responding yes i see the CPM port in the Device manage and the Ardunio IDE but the ESP32-S3 only show the red light at the top and the bottom left on the ESP32-S3 and in order for me to see that I have to press the reset button twice or I wouldnt see no lights on only the tiny white one at the bottom right of the ESP32-S3. What can I do to make the ESP32-S3 start flashing all the different colors thank you for your help
