Title: [SOLVED] Black screen after Menu Update
Post by: ekryyn on December 14, 2016, 01:55:41 PM
Hello, I'm trying to update the menu following the doc, this happens :

Sketch uses 30,828 bytes (11%) of program storage space. Maximum is 262,144 bytes.

And then nothing...

I'm able to enter the "bootloader mode" by pressing the 2 buttons, the upload seems fine, but the program doesn't seem to run... I just have a black screen.

Am I missing something ?

Thank you !

Ok solved... I've been using the wrong programmer apparently. I finally tried with AVRISP mkii and it worked.

I got the problem with the black screen after updating the example program. With the sample program running, I switched the arcade off and I could only get a black screen and no port connection to the Arduino IDE. Thank to this thread I found out the existence of the bootloader mode by pressing the two buttons. That reestablished connection to the Arcuino IDE and could update the menu software thereafter. The existence of the bootloader mode should be mentioned in the update instructions for the menu software.
