So I bought a new photon to control a refrigerator I added it to my account , it shows as connected in the web-ide but I can’t flash it with code. I just sits there with the blue led breathing away and the flash times out.
I have tried removing it from my inventory and adding it back.
any ideas?
thanks steve.
Breathing blue or cyan?

Hi,
Are you farmiliar with the particle-cli tools?
If so I would try running the ‘Particle Device Doctor’ command.

Can you signal it from the web IDE?
What about a really simple program like ‘blink an led’? Does it do that?
What version of system firmware have you selected?
