First time deploying code to your Netduino

After either downloading or cloning the source code you will need to reset the .NET Micro Framework Deployment Transport.

  1. Ensure your Netduino Plus 2 is connected to your PC via the USB cable.
  2. Right mouse click the MakerDen project, and select Properties.
  3. From the properties page select the .NET Micro Framework tab
  4. Select Emulator from the Transport dropdown then reselect USB and your Netduino.

The project should now deploy correctly to your Netduino.

Updating the Netduino Firmware to 4.3.1

The first time you use the Netduino you will almost certainly need to update the device firmware to the latest version to match the .NET Micro Framework you installed on your PC.

  1. Watch the "How to Update Firmware and set the MAC Address" video guide
  2. Download the Netduino Plus 2 Firmware (ignore the prerequists listed on that page as they are out of date)

##Firmware level does not match

You need to update the firmware on the Netduino. See updating firmware instructions.

##Error code 0x80131700 at compile time

  1. Ensure the “.NET Framework 3.5 (including .NET 2.0 and 3.0)” Windows feature is installed.
  2. Ensure .NET Micro Framework Installed

##Netduino network issues. A DHCP IP address is not allocated or there are network connectivity issues.

  1. Out of the box (or if the Netduino is re-flashed) the MAC address is not configured on the Netduino Plus 2.
  2. Using the .NET Micro Framework Deploy Tool (search MFDeploy) select USB from the Device dropdown. From the main menu, select Target -> Configuration -> Network and set the MAC Address.

##Problems deploying code to the Netduino.
For persistent device connection errors.

  1. First call to action is to recycle the power to the device by unplugging and reinserting the USB cable and try again
  2. If connection problem persists then
    • Right mouse click the project you want to deploy and select properties
    • Select .NET Micro Framework tab
    • From the Transport dropdown select Emulator, then reselect USB.
    • Your project should deploy
  3. Failing this, then re-flash the firmware. Ensure you reset the MAC address using the .NET Micro Framework Deploy Tool (search MFDeploy).
