AM 4.0 beta - only one messageport Arduino at a time

#1 Post by brianbarr »

It appears the latest Air Manager beta will only connect to one Arduino messageport channel at a time. The 3.7 versions seem to work as expected. Multiple Arduinos messageport channels show up in the devices tab in Air Manager.

Aside - is the architecture of Air Manager such that any usb connected Arduino's running messageport are visible to ALL AM instances "everywhere" -- or is their visibility limited to just the device running AM or AP that they are plugged in to? In other words can I plug an Arduino in to any random AM or AP device and expect to see that "messageport device channel" show up on any instance of AM running on the network?

Arduino devices will only operate on the PC to which they are connected. No network operation i’m afraid.

No network functionality as Sling mentioned. I'll add the other issue to our to-do list.

Hi,

Just checked here, but seems to work fine.
Did you add both Arduino's to the list manually? AM 4.0 won't do automatic detection anymore.
