Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header.

But if you want to solve this issue once for all without the need to press the BOOT button, follow the suggestions in the next guide: You’ll also have to repeat that button sequence every time you want to upload a new sketch. Press the “ ENABLE” button to restart the ESP32 and run the new uploaded sketch. Your ESP32 should have the new sketch running.

After that, you should see the “ Done uploading” message.

In your Arduino IDE, go to File> Preferences To install the ESP32 board in your Arduino IDE, follow these next instructions: If later on, you need to install the SPIFFS plugin, you can install Arduino 1.8.X and have both versions installed on your computer.ĭo you need an ESP32 board? You can buy it here.

If you’ll use Arduino 2, you can follow this tutorial instead: You just need to scroll down on the Arduino software page to find it. So, if you intend to use the SPIFFS plugin in the future, we recommend installing the legacy version 1.8.X. Which Arduino IDE version do we recommend? At the moment, there are some plugins for the ESP32 (like the SPIFFS Filesystem Uploader Plugin) that are not yet supported on Arduino 2. You can download and install Arduino IDE by clicking on the following link: /en/Main/Software There are two versions of the Arduino IDE you can install: version 1 and version 2. Prerequisites: Arduino IDE Installedīefore starting this installation procedure, you need to have Arduino IDE installed on your computer. If you like the ESP32, enroll in our course: Learn ESP32 with Arduino IDE. If you have any problems during the installation procedure, take a look at the ESP32 Troubleshooting Guide. This tutorial is available in video format (watch below) and in written format (continue reading this page). In this tutorial we’ll show you how to install the ESP32 board in Arduino IDE whether you’re using Windows, Mac OS X or Linux.

There’s an add-on for the Arduino IDE that allows you to program the ESP32 using the Arduino IDE and its programming language.
