Simple “hello world” not showing up after entering

Post by Nkuck »

Using MacOSX and a RaspberryPi Pico. Not able to get anything out and back. Basically stayed with the default settings in CoolTerm, tried a few different baudrates, and changed the serial port.

Hi,

have you flashed microPython onto the Pico? You'll need that. Otherwise the Pico won't show up as a serial port and respond to commands from the terminal.

Here are step-by-step instruction of how to get the Pico working with CoolTerm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzsEr2QCGPw

I hope this helps.
