Hi,
Is the Pico 2W supported by eric-ide?
It is supported (and many more).
I'm on the latest version of
eric-ide but it's not detecting my newly bought Pico 2W.
That is because a brand new Pico does not have a firmware installed.
When you plug it in, a volume called 'RPI-RP2' should be shown. In order
to flash a firmware like MicroPython or CircuitPython, you have to mount
that volume. Thereafter you may use the 'Flash UF2 Device' action to
flash a firmware. Once MicroPython is on the board, it will be detected
automatically by eric-ide.
Also, should
an LED light up when I plug it in?
Not on a RPi Pico. Other boards may have such an LED.
Or is there list of supported devices available somewhere?
Such a list is included in the source code. It is about 500+ entries
long and even more models are supported because some devices use the
same VID/PID combination for other devices as well (i.e. most RPi RP2
based boards use the same independent of vendor/producer).
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Detlev
