Version: 1.1.0
Release date: 2018-03-23
www.pololu.com

This repository contains the source code of the configuration software that supports the Pololu USB AVR Programmer v2 and Pololu USB AVR Programmer v2.1. There are two programs: the Pololu USB AVR Programmer v2 Command-line Utility (pavr2cmd) and the Pololu USB AVR Programmer v2 Configuration Utility (pavr2gui).

This software only supports the Pololu USB AVR Programmer v2 and v2.1, which are blue-colored. If you have an older Pololu programmer, refer to the product page and user's guide of that programmer for software resources.

Note that the v2 in the name of this repository refers to the versions of the hardware products, which is different from the version number of this software.

This software is only used for configuring the programmer and reading information from it. To actually program an AVR, you will need AVR programming software such as AVRDUDE or Atmel Studio.

Installation

Installers for this software are available for download from the Pololu USB AVR Programmer v2 User's Guide.

See BUILDING.md for information about how to compile the software from source.
