LINX stop working after using ARDUINO GENUINO

Hey 

I used LINX for ARDUINO UNO and its worked ok. 

Than I used ARDUINO GENUINO and it also worked ok. 

Than I tried to work once again on LINX, and it stop working.

 

I used the blinking example on LINX and got this error message:
"P
ossible reason(s):

LabVIEW was unable to connect to the LINX device using the following settings:

Interface: Serial
COM Port: ASRL3::INSTR

Please make sure that the LINX firmware is loaded on the device (Tools>>MakerHub >>LINX>>Firmware Wizard) that there are no other open connections to the device, then check the configuration settings, and try again.

If this error persists please search, then post on the LINX forums at www.labviewmakerhub.com/forums/linx"

 

Than I used the LINX Firmware wizard and got this on the View Log after its complete:

System wide configuration file is "avrdude_ard.conf"

Using Port : ASRL3::INSTR

avrdude_ard.exe: ser_open(): can't open device "ASRL3::INSTR": The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.


avrdude_ard.exe done. Thank you." 

 

Do you know how to solve the problem?  

 

Thanks

Sounds to me like the Arduino is NOT on com3 ("ASRL3::INSTR") anymore

Or the "ARDUINO GENUINO " did not release the port.

 

Did you try restarting the PC?

More to add:

 

I find it unlikely that both the Arduino Uno and Genuino would have the exact same com port assigned by Windows. As their individual UUID would be different so Windows should have assigned them to different com ports to begin with.

 

I have a more than one Arduino Uno and each individual UNO always gets the same com port, but each individual UNO is also assigned a different com port.

Thanks

It was helpful

I delete the arduino from the device manger and the arduino genuino and reinstall them and now its working
