Upload Problem for NodeMCU

[ZJ0518]

Hi, I faced such issue while uploading my code from arduino IDE to my NODEMCU Lua V3 ESP8266 WIFI.

Error:

This is my code to interface the Ultrasonic Sensor and NodeMCU.

#define BLYNK_PRINT Serial
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <BlynkSimpleEsp8266.h>

char auth[] = "-2fX0ap9fZmfV1sZLpw06ab6WNvagomb";
char ssid[] = "BlazingSpeed-TIME2.4G";
char pass[] = "1bwf3988";

const int trigPin = D0;
const int echoPin = D1;

long duration;
int distance;

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Blynk.begin(auth,ssid,pass);
  pinMode(trigPin,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(echoPin,INPUT);
}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
  digitalWrite(trigPin,LOW);
  delayMicroseconds(2);
  digitalWrite(trigPin,HIGH);
  delayMicroseconds(10);
  digitalWrite(trigPin,LOW);
  duration = pulseIn(echoPin,HIGH);
  distance = duration*0.34/2;

  if (distance <= 10){
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V0,255);
  }
  else{
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V0,0);
  }
  if (distance <= 6){
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V1,255);
  }
  else{
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V1,0);
  }
  if (distance <= 3){
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V2,255);
  }
  else{
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V2,0);
  }
  Blynk.run();
}

The source code isn't the problem although you might need to change 'distance' to a float type to make the calculation work.
The error on the last two lines indicates a problem with the serial port on the computer you are using to program the device. Basically it can't access the port you have specified.

Incidentally, you should change your 'auth[]' code (get a new one from Blynk) now it has been published. You should keep it secret as now anyone using it can access your device!

Hi Brian,
Does that means that the USB cable I used or the NodeMCU module is faulty?

I don't use Windows but from the error report it would seem the problem is that the computer is unable to see the serial port so it suggests either a configuration error in the PC or the cable is faulty. It is unlikely to be a faulty NodeMCU but not impossible.

Check the NodeMCU has 5V between the 'Vin' pin and the 'GND' pin when the USB cable is plugged in. Also check the 3.3V is present between the '3V3' pin and 'GND'. If you check the USB port (in the Windows control panel I think) it should report seeing the UART, most likely reporting it as a CP2012.

I think is change new line usb for upload.
