I still don’t have a reliable method to format an SD card to be recognized by the huzzah32, but the wonderful Wolfgang from Germany sent me this format procedure that worked for him with many different cards. NOTE This did not work for me on a few test cards. I’ve only been able to get a 1GB and 2GB kingston microSD card to work.
Open Windows Disk Management
Locate the SD card, and remove all volumes from the card until you are left with all unallocated space
Right click the unallocated space, and create a new simple volume
Click next, and then make sure you set the size to 1024 MB
Click next, and next again, and then make sure you use FAT16 filesystem
And now your card should have a 1GB partition on it
Now this is where you can try it in the sand bot – put the card in and reset the huzzah32, and refresh the cncUI.html to see if the bot recognizes the sd card. Wolfgang says the bot will report the entire size, and not the 1GB partition size.
If this is successful, you can now go back to windows with the SD card, delete the 1 GB partition and create another new simple volume to take up the entire SD card space, in FAT32.
And you should now have a partition that is the whole size of the card.
Put it back in the sandbot, restart it and refresh the page and you should see the whole card available. According to Wolfgang, this has worked on all microSD cards he tried.
There is no reference on how to interconnect the huzzah with the SD card board. How do they connect?
I have the adalogger featherwing. How does it connect to the HUZZAH. Does it replace the Expressif32? I am not sure I understand.
On another note. In the raw code, do I need to select the board before compiling? I keep getting an error of it taking to much space and it won’t compile.
have you tried to compile the current code?
If you have an archive I would appreciate a download folder.
BTW I have boards and a laser cutter now.
The adalogger (and all other wings) are designed to mount directly on top (or below) of the huzzah32 like this
If you solder stacking pins through the huzzah32, then you can just plug the adalogger in to the top.

In regards to compiling, have you followed this video exactly?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeNXUhOl0QoNice on the laser cutter! That’s one tool I wish I had
I will make a deal with you. If you need anything cut I will help you out as a trade for helping me get this thing going.
Do I need to modify any of the files before compiling. It seems there is a declaration of a variable “#define INADDR_NONE IPADDR_NON” that is a problem in the inet.h file at line:CHARACTER 71:29
I had to comment that out to get it to compile but then it says the file is too big to load on the ADAHUZZAH.
If I remove the platformIO.ini reference about literals. (says serious or dangerous problem) it will compile.
Makes me think that posted code may be dodgy.
I used VSCODE 1.5.2.1 and Platform IDE 2.21 and still no joy.
Well deleting and starting all over, like you said, worked. Not sure why, but that made me happy. I have to figure out how to config the network next. The serial port is working as it should so a little more and I will be able to fully test.
