Using Atom - Important!

When you are using Atom, you must only have one project open at a time. When you change exercises, choose "File:Close Window" before opening more files. 

Troubleshooting

Windows 7 drivers

On most platforms, once the Atom Pymakr package installed, you will be in a position to communicate with Pycom devices via the USB port without any issue.

In the case of Windows 7, you will need to install an additional driver. The procedure is documented in Pycom documentation at the following url: https://docs.pycom.io/chapter/pytrackpysense/installation/drivers.html

Alternatively, you can find as well the required driver here ../software/windows/pycom.inf
