I’m following the instructions to “1a. Getting Started (Arduino Edition)” on the Daisy wiki to set up my Daisy Seed device with the Arduino IDE
I’ve performed all steps up to “Flash the Blink Example” including resetting my USB driver using Zadig
When I click “Upload” in the Blink example, the LED turns on and does not blink and I get this message in the log:

From there, if I click upload again, the LED remains on and I get this message in the log:

Error: Target device not found
Establishing connection with the device failed
the selected serial port Establishing connection with the device failed
does not exist or your board is not connected
Unsure where to go from here if I want to continue setting up the Arduino IDE for Daisy Seed.
(Note: Arduino IDE is the latest version, 1.8.19)
Flashing the Blink example on the Web Programmer via the “Flash Blink” button or the “select a platform and a program from the menu below.” section works fine
Flashing Blink.ino as a file from my computer on the Web Programmer does not work. In this case, the LED doesn’t even turn on, let alone blink.
That’s expected. the .ino is the source code - it has to be compiled before it can be flashed to the microcontroller.
“A compiler takes the program code (.ino) and converts the source code to a machine language module (called an object file). Another specialized program, called a linker, combines this object file with other previously compiled object files (in particular run-time modules) to create an executable file. (.hex/.bin/.elf)”
Appreciated, I’m very much a newbie at stuff like this. Would the way forward be to compile my arduino sketches and use the Web Programmer that way? In a perfect world I’d like to know what’s preventing me from flashing to the Daisy from the IDE, a cursory search leads me to believe no one else has encountered this problem.
It works for me - I just did a fresh Arduino install, following the instructions
Here’s what I get when uploading the blink example.
Sketch uses 32492 bytes (24%) of program storage space. Maximum is 131072 bytes.
Global variables use 4032 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 520256 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 524288 bytes.

the wiki says " Now press the ‘Upload’ button (Not the ‘Upload using Programmer’ button) in the Arduino window, to compile and flash the example to your module. You should see the onboard LED toggle on and off each second!"
But that was not enough - I had to press “reset” on the daisy seed to start the program after “upload”.
I think that is the difference - the daisy web programmer does a software reset after uploading, and the program runs.
Hey lelah,
I’m sorry to hear that it’s not working.
Pressing the ‘reset’ button should do the trick for that error, but it seems like it’s not unfortunately.
The Daisy Web Programmer working for you is a good sign tho
I’m sure it may not make a difference, but give it a try with Arduino 2.0.
Also, could you tell us more about your computer setup, in particular your OS? Thanks!
I had a similar problem. I kept getting the error target device not found - even if the DFU in FS mode was showing up and I had confirmed that the data cable was working.
After a few hours of debugging it turned the problem was the docking station / usb hub i was using.
When I plugged the Daisy Seed directly into USB-C → USB-A converter it worked!
So beware of USB hubs! I’m leaving this comment here in case someone else get this problem!
