   Hi,
   I've seen one movie on YT where was eg. how to upload sketch into STM32 board by ArduinoIDE and MapleIDE, made same as on the movie, step by step and it wasn't work, ArduinoIDE can't program it in my case.

   I tryied to program it was MapleIDE, that is hard part, I have linux mint, in arduino also had spent some time to setup programs but it looks a lot easier than Maple to first start, there was an instruction how to program it but still, can't upload a sketch, program is starting uploading, and stock (MapleIDE),

   and device, LeafLabs Maple r5 is always flashing LED like an crazzy, even when I push the Reset or But button,
   it flash slowly only on the begining for few times, and then fast, no matter what I do,

   when I start to upload program by MapleIDE I get this info

   "Going to build using 'armcompiler' (ARM)
   Compiling core...
   No libraries to compile.
   Compiling the sketch...
   Linking...
   Computing sketch size...

   /tmp/build8281330379353600180.tmp/Blink.cpp.bin :
   section size addr
   .data 12848 0
   Total 12848

   Binary sketch size is reported above. Check it against a 108000 byte maximum.
   Loading via dfu-util
   Resetting to bootloader via DTR pulse"

   and then program stock, everytime, upload haven't been done even once,
   don't know what is wrong as I don't get any information from IDE since that time.

   anyone knows how to deal with this stuff?

   Have you tried to put the board into "Perpetual Bootloader Mode":
   http://static.leaflabs.com/pub/leaflabs/maple-docs/latest/troubleshooting.html#perpetual-bootloader-mode

   It is a bit tricky, it usually takes several attempts to get it to work, and the timing of the two buttons seems to be a awkward.

   Hi gbulmer,

   I was trying to use perpetual bootloader mode, however unsuccessful. Spend few hours yesterday,
   couldn't solve it. Don't know how to press this buttons, as sequence described on the forum not working for me. And even LED's are flashing different, first few times slowly and then fast till I unplug device and plug in again.

   Where does your Maple r5 come from? Maybe the bootloader is broken. It should blink fast for a second after resetting, then slow. You may have to reprogram the (USB) bootloader using the serial bootloader.
