Well folks, I think I`m getting better at this soldering business!

My first module seems to be dead.  I don't know what I`ve done to it but I can't even flash to it anymore.  I think I`ll need to write it off as experience!

My second module (the one you were all helping me with) is working fine.

I`ve just completed my third module and it worked first time!!!

I was just wondering though, if the flashing is done via the FTDI pins, what's the USB connector for?

My USB header pins don't go all the way through my PCB's (maybe I ordered PCB's too thick) so I never bothered to solder the sockets in.


Frank.
