radino Modules
The core of radino is an Arduino Micro, so the programming is as easy as programming an Arduino Micro.
Visit radino software for more information about the Arduino IDE.
We offer a continuously growing Arduino Lib with Drivers, Libs and Examples for our radino Modules:
http://www.ic42.de/BSP/radino/ICT_Boards.zip
All our radino modules fit in the radino Leonardo evaluation board.
It's a easy way to connect to radino modules.

Common problems and solutions
Uploading a sketch through the arduino IDE fails
Enable verbose output via "File->Preferences" select checkboxes "compilation" and "upload" near "Show verbose output during:"
Check verbose error messages during compilation and upload
- arduino IDE successfully finds the COM port but avrdude stops after an output like
Connecting to programmer: .avrdude: Send: . [1b] avrdude: Send: S [53] avrdude: Recv:
- -> Force the arduino into bootloader by pressing reset button twice when the arduino IDE starts scanning the COM ports
- arduino IDE successfully finds the COM port but avrdude stops after an output like
avrdude: ser_send(): write error: sorry no info avail
- -> Force the arduino into bootloader by pressing reset button twice when the arduino IDE starts scanning the COM ports
- arduino IDE fails after scanning the COM ports with an message like
processing.app.debug.RunnerException: Couldn’t find a Leonardo on the selected port. Check that you have the correct port selected
- -> Force the arduino into bootloader by pressing reset button twice when avrdude starts scanning the COM ports
- -> Disconnect the arduino from USB and reconnect after some seconds
- -> Maybe a restart of the arduino IDE is necessary.
Windows 8 refuses to install Arduino / radino drivers
When using Windows 8, radino driver installation may be refused because of the missing digital signature.
The following tuturial describes a possible solution to install radino drivers (hardware drivers without digital signature) properly on Windows 8:
Drivers for radino module and radino bootloader will be installed separately. As mentioned above, you can force your radino to enter bootloader-mode by pressing reset button twice. Your computer will then recognize your radino bootloader.
radino & Linux
Some users experienced problems while trying to upload new sketches to their radino modules. A conflict with the ModemManager prevents succesful uploads. When entering bootloader-mode, the ModemManager immediately sends random data to the radino, which will prevent proper uploading.
- To fix this issue, a UDEV-file can be created, located in
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-modemmanager-ignore-radino.rules
which holds the following content
ACTION!="add|change", GOTO="ignore_radino_end" SUBSYSTEM!="usb", GOTO="ignore_radino_end" ENV{DEVTYPE}!="usb_device", GOTO="ignore_radino_end" # Ignore ICT products. ATTRS{idVendor}=="1da9", ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}="1" LABEL="ignore_radino_end"
The ModemManager will now ignore all In-Circuit products (like radino). You can now upload your sketches as usual, using Arduino IDE.
