By combining these two functions onto a single processor, the Leonardo allows for more flexibility in its communication with the computer. It also helps to lower the cost of the board by removing the need for an additional processor.
Serial re-enumeration on reset. Since the boards do not have a dedicated chip to handle serial communication, it means that the serial port is virtual -- it's a software routine, both on your operating system, and on the board itself. This means that every time you reset the board, the USB serial connection will be broken and re-established.
The board will disappear from the list of serial ports, and the list will re-enumerate. Any program that has an open serial connection to the Leonardo will lose its connection.
This difference has implications for driver installation, uploading, and communication; these are discussed below. No reset when you open the serial port. Unlike the Arduino Uno, the Leonardo and Micro won't restart your sketch when you open a serial port on the computer.
That means you won't see serial data that's already been sent to the computer by the board, including, for example, most data sent in the setup function. This change means that if you're using any Serial print , println or write statements in your setup, they won't show up when you open the serial monitor.
To work around this, you can check to see if the serial port is open after calling Serial. Keyboard and mouse emulation. One advantage of using a single chip for your sketches and for USB is increased flexibility in the communication with the computer. From this new standpoint I will be able to re-flash the the hooky Leonardo via the official working Leonardo? I removed the comments, Leonardo appeared in the boards menu and we are away having a little fun.
Hello, today is first day playing with a Leonardo. I am having the error shown in picture. Tried auto and manual driver install also. Tried rebooting, redownloading, reseting, reunzipping etc. I just can't make it work. Pleaaase help. Just got my Arduino Leonardo today from element Thank you so much for the information!! That was the final clue to finally fix this. Books that may interest you:.
