When I try to compile and upload Blink, the upload phase returns memory used, etc., then just hangs there. My FTDI connector has RX and TX properly crossed, etc. The LED seems to indicate something is loading.

I find myself digging through sales literature trying to find out information. Having something as simple as a bulleted list of parameters to set (Board type, CPU), and a working program for each board that minimally exercises all chips would save so much time. This would not be a lot of work for whomever designs and tests these.

Any ideas on this?

Thanks
