Hi, I recently bought several 2.2 soil sensors as well as the compatible ESP flasher. I’ve followed instructions and drivers are installed for the flasher and the sample code does compile cleanly.
But I only get errors when flashing. The error messages are shown below. I have removed the jumper from GPIO16 and I see a red light during flashing so I am sure of the usb cable and computer connection. I also tried a few other soil sensors but they all have the same issue.
Do I need to push the flash button on the flasher?
Thank you,
