Thank you for opening an issue on an Adafruit Arduino library repository. To
2
+
improve the speed of resolution please review the following guidelines and
3
+
common troubleshooting steps below before creating the issue:
4
+
5
+
-**Do not use GitHub issues for troubleshooting projects and issues.** Instead use
6
+
the forums at http://forums.adafruit.com to ask questions and troubleshoot why
7
+
something isn't working as expected. In many cases the problem is a common issue
8
+
that you will more quickly receive help from the forum community. GitHub issues
9
+
are meant for known defects in the code. If you don't know if there is a defect
10
+
in the code then start with troubleshooting on the forum first.
11
+
12
+
-**If following a tutorial or guide be sure you didn't miss a step.** Carefully
13
+
check all of the steps and commands to run have been followed. Consult the
14
+
forum if you're unsure or have questions about steps in a guide/tutorial.
15
+
16
+
-**For Arduino projects check these very common issues to ensure they don't apply**:
17
+
18
+
- For uploading sketches or communicating with the board make sure you're using
19
+
a **USB data cable** and **not** a **USB charge-only cable**. It is sometimes
20
+
very hard to tell the difference between a data and charge cable! Try using the
21
+
cable with other devices or swapping to another cable to confirm it is not
22
+
the problem.
23
+
24
+
-**Be sure you are supplying adequate power to the board.** Check the specs of
25
+
your board and plug in an external power supply. In many cases just
26
+
plugging a board into your computer is not enough to power it and other
27
+
peripherals.
28
+
29
+
-**Double check all soldering joints and connections.** Flakey connections
30
+
cause many mysterious problems. See the [guide to excellent soldering](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-guide-excellent-soldering/tools) for examples of good solder joints.
31
+
32
+
-**Ensure you are using an official Arduino or Adafruit board.** We can't
33
+
guarantee a clone board will have the same functionality and work as expected
34
+
with this code and don't support them.
