Arduino remote upload

This is how I upload sketches from my computer (windows 7) to an arduino uno board attached to a remote linux host (Debian 7).

On the linux host:

  • Install usbip package
  • Load kernel modules usbip_host and usbip_core
  • As root, launch usbipd (use -d for debugging)
  • Find your arduino board with lsusb :

Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 009 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 046d:c313 Logitech, Inc. Internet 350 Keyboard
Bus 007 Device 004: ID 2341:0043 Arduino SA Uno R3 (CDC ACM)

  • Export the usb bus (arduino device is 7-4, so the bus is 7-1)

usbip bind -b 7-1

On Windows:

usbip -a archipel 7-1

  • Let windows install the drivers
  • Use Device Manager to find the COM port corresponding to « Arduino UNO »
  • Select the correct COM port in Arduino IDE
  • Enjoy !
