Messing around with my Trinket, I am running into problems with the stock 2.1 Fire example sketch. I get the following error:
C:\Users\Admin\Documents\Arduino\libraries\FastLED\FastLED.cpp: In member function ‘void CFastLED::countFPS(int)’:
C:\Users\Admin\Documents\Arduino\libraries\FastLED\FastLED.cpp:124: error: ‘Serial’ was not declared in this scope
How shall I go about a fix? The example sketch doesn’t call the function LEDS.countFPS() because the Trinket has no serial support except via softserial…
Like I said, I’ve been fiddling with Tiny85s for a long time now using the trinket core and even pushing them to their limit, never had to reflash one. However, I don’t use the trinket connected to USB for programming. I use an AVR ISP programmer for that.
I think that’s the main reason I run into problems, I flash via USB. I should get an AVR ISP programmer to avoid this problem in the future.
The only reason I don’t bother with the USB is that it cuts down on the components needed. Just need the Tiny85, capacitor, a reset pull-up, and the ISP breakout (which I do as an edge breakout.)
