Hi folks,
I hope this e-mail finds you well.
I have been playing with emonGLCD and got compilation ok, however I'm unable to upload into device. I'm getting this error message:
Binary sketch size: 24,700 bytes (of a 32,256 byte maximum)
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
Looks like that there isn't communications with my emonGLCD, however I'm unsure how to start debug it. I'm using a FTDI 5V cable, GND-GND paired, and no lights turn on on emonGLCD (I'm not sure what expect to see in emonGLCD).
I'm stuck here, do you have any clue on what can I do to fix it?
Best Regards!

Re: emonGLCD firmware upload
If you copy and paste "avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00" into google you will see that this is a common arduino problem!
I'm assuming you are using the Arduino IDE?
If so make sure you have the right board type selected in Tools->Board. Also make sure you have the right serial port selected in Tools->Serial Port.
Otherwise try the other tips mentioned on http://www.ladyada.net/learn/arduino/help.html
